Sometimes the impact of mentoring continues long after a program ends. Read this reflection from our mentor, Stephanie:

“I wanted to share the impact mentoring has had on both of us. My mentee, S, recently started attending church with her dad - and they’ve kept going!

After our mentoring ended due to her moving to a different school district, I truly didn’t think I would see her again. When we reconnected at church, I was overwhelmed with emotion - it felt like such a gift to be back in each other’s lives.

Recently, we attended a service together where she brought a friend, and I had the chance to walk her through parts of the experience that were new to her. She’s open, curious, and eager to learn, which has been so special to witness. I was also able to gift her a teen Bible for Easter.

I’m so grateful for this opportunity and would appreciate prayers as she continues to grow in her faith.”

Anthony Whitmore, a founding board member, stepped off the MVLF Board this past year after 10 years of service. It’s difficult to express the impact of losing leaders who helped shape our mission from the very beginning.

We are incredibly grateful to the Reynolds & Reynolds Associate Foundation for their investment in our Mentoring2Thrive program in 2025.

Because of their $1,500 grant, we were able to purchase a smart projector, portable screen, sound equipment, training supplies, and branded mentor materials — all designed to elevate the professionalism and effectiveness of our mentor training.

When mentors are equipped well, students are served well. Thank you for helping us strengthen the foundation of mentoring in the Miami Valley.

When one of our mentors learned she needed surgery for a torn meniscus, her first worry wasn’t the recovery — it was her mentee.

After two years together, she didn’t want to lose momentum during several weeks apart. Instead of pausing their time together, she chose connection.

She’ll be sending her mentee a letter each week while she heals. 🤍

That’s the power of mentoring — commitment, even from a distance.
