The YMCA in Easley and Pickens, in conjunction with Mentor Upstate and SDPC, is excited to bring a top notch mentoring program to Pickens County schools.
Our goal is to partner businesses, churches and civic organizations with elementary, middle and high schools in the Pickens County area to provide a framework of support to help students achieve their potential and discover their strengths.

A huge THANK YOU goes to Pickens View Wesleyan Church for inviting us out this past week to share about the opportunity to get involved with Y Mentor!
