The Call for Mentors went out last month through the Chamber of Commerce Newsletter, from that information package you can download a Mentor Commitment and application form to submit your name as one of the key ingredients to the successful continuation of the program.
The Deadline to apply to be a mentor is September 18th.
As for the Rising Stars program if you know of a student at either Northwest Community College or Charles Hays Secondary that may benefit from Rising Starts, that application can be found here.
