The Lighthouse Project connects educated urban youth with children from under resourced communities through one-on-one mentoring. www.lighthouseproject.in

The Lighthouse Project is a not-for-profit in Mumbai that connects professionals with children from under-resourced communities through one-on-one mentoring in a safe environment. Mentors spend 4 hours a month over an 8 month period building the life skills and social skills of the children while exposing them to a world outside of their community. Currently we work in 5 areas in Mumbai, largely with street children, children from slum communities and girls from Mumbai's red light district (Kamathipura). Website: www.lighthouseproject.in

Mentoring is often seen as a journey where one person guides another. But along the way, mentors learn, reflect and see things differently too.

We asked Anshika Jerath, one of our mentors, what she understands differently today because of her mentoring experience.

Her answer is a reminder that mentoring is not just about the difference we hope to make in someone else’s life. It can also change the way we understand people, experiences, and ourselves.

Because sometimes, the mentor learns too. 💛

Mentoring is often seen as an opportunity to guide someone else. But the experience can be equally transformative for the mentor.

For Keshav Sharma, beginning his mentoring journey with the Lighthouse Project has brought a new perspective to his weekends, his interactions, and the way he approaches situations. Through each interaction, he has experienced that mentoring is not simply about following a plan.

It is about understanding the person in front of you, responding to their needs, and being open to learning along the way. In many ways, the journey has encouraged him to reflect on his own experiences and perspectives as much asthose of his mentee.

Behind every confident mentee is a mentor who believed in them first. 💙

This Teachers’ Day, we are honoring the everyday mentors, guides and leaders who don’t just teach subjects, they teach life. From building confidence and setting goals to offering a listening ear, these priceless lessons don’t come from a textbook. They come from the heart.

To every mentor walking alongside our youth and shaping responsible, conscious citizens: Thank You.
