We are so excited to share our zoo pictures!

Check out our matches by mentee grade and all the fun they had together. It was so special to see the joy in these matches as they spent quality time side by side. Moments like these are what TeamMates is all about, building strong, meaningful connections between mentors and mentees that last far beyond a single day.

A huge thank you to our incredible mentors for taking time away from work and home to make this day possible. Your commitment makes all the difference.

The weather could not have been more perfect, and we are so grateful to the TeamMates National Office and the Henry Doorly Zoo for helping create such a memorable experience! 🐘🦒🐅

We have so many great pictures to share and they are coming your way over the next few days. But we could not wait to share this one…

63 TeamMates matches in grades 6 through 12 all together for a day at the zoo!

We had absolutely perfect weather and an even better time. The joy was easy to see in every group. From exploring exhibits to laughing, connecting, and celebrating our seniors, it was a day full of moments that show exactly what TeamMates is all about. These relationships between mentors and mentees are built on trust, encouragement, and simply spending time together and days like this strengthen those bonds in the best way.

Huge thank you to the Henry Doorly Zoo and the TeamMates National Office for making this incredible day possible! 🐘🦒🐅

Thank you to Washington County Gives for a wonderful event last night and for the opportunity to share about TeamMates Mentoring Program. It was meaningful to speak about the impact mentoring has on students right here in our community and to connect with so many supporters who care about youth success.

We are also incredibly grateful for the generous grant that provided an iPad for our program. This resource will help us strengthen communication and support our daily work in new and meaningful ways.

We appreciate your investment in our mission and your continued support of local nonprofits.
