When the school bell rings, the learning doesn't stop – it just looks a little different.

Amachi Club is filled with laughter, hands-on activities, encouragement, and meaningful relationships that help students grow inside and outside the classroom. From trying a new STEM project to learning an important life skill, every session is an opportunity for children to discover their strengths.

What if I’m still not ready to mentor?

You don’t have to have it all figured out before becoming a mentor. We’ll provide the training, support, and resources you need along the way. All you need is a willingness to show up and build a meaningful relationship with a young person. You might be more ready than you think!

But if now still isn’t the right time to become a mentor, you can still make an impact! Share the word, tell a friend, or share our posts to help us reach more people 💚

What if a child doesn’t want a mentor? 🤔

We make sure every child wants a mentor before moving forward with the matching process. Mentoring works best when a child is excited to build a new relationship and have someone in their corner! 💙
