What a day at the zoo! 🐒

Our high school Teammates mentees had an incredible opportunity to spend the day with their mentors, exploring, connecting, and making memories that will last a lifetime. It was so special to see so many chapters come together!

A big congratulations to our senior member, Joseph Bertelsen, who was recognized today at the Harper Event Center—we are so proud of you! 🎓

Thank you to all of the mentors who made time to attend. Your presence truly makes a difference.

Favorite quote of the day: “Teammates is truly changing lives.” ♥️

Our Teammates Mentoring chapter enjoyed a fun and relaxed Movie Night with our elementary and middle school students! Mentees and mentors kicked off their shoes, got comfy, and settled in to watch GOAT while enjoying Gatorade, cookies, and of course—plenty of popcorn 🍿

These group experiences create meaningful moments of connection, laughter, and belonging.

A heartfelt thank you to all of our mentors who were able to make it! Your presence truly makes a difference in the lives of these kids. ❤️

Today was a good day! ♥️

A mentee who has been anxiously waiting for a male mentor since the beginning of the year has officially been matched! Sharing that news was the best part of my day, and I’m pretty sure it was the best part of his too.

When you invest in a student, the impact goes both ways!

"When I first started with my mentee over 5 years ago, he was quiet and kept to himself. It took time to build trust.

Over the years, I’ve watched him grow into someone more open, more confident, and more respectful. He’s faced tough moments in school and also experienced loss in his family, and the way he’s handled it has shown real maturity. I’ve also really come to appreciate his work ethic and his understanding that hard work is what gets you the things you want in life.

That’s what this is about. You don’t have to have all the answers—you just have to show up. Day by day." - Current MV Teammates Mentor

This year our chapter gifted Teammates blankets to all of our mentors as a small token of appreciation for the time, care, and encouragement they pour into their mentees.

One of our outstanding mentors, Madisyn, received a Certificate of Appreciation signed by Kim Reynolds for her dedication to mentoring.

We are so grateful for mentors like Madisyn and all of the amazing volunteers who show up each week to support and encourage the next generation. Thank you for being such an important part of our program!
