National Mentoring Day Discussion

October 27 is National Mentoring Day! It’s the perfect time to think of a mentor who shaped you into who you are today.

The more than 54,000 students who participate each year in Junior Achievement of South Florida’s programs are better equipped to succeed in the workforce thanks to over 7,100 community volunteers and mentors who share their passion and expertise.

The benefits are endless for both our students and mentors. For students, they improve communication and personal skills, develop leadership and management skills, boosts confidence and much more! Mentors, doesn’t it make you feel good to give back and make a difference in the lives of others? Thanks to your efforts, our future leaders are learning essential entrepreneurship, work readiness and financial literacy skills that will last them a lifetime.

We want to know about your mentorship experience!
