College Mentors for Kids - University of Kentucky Chapter

We are so proud of our president, Peyton Barnhill, for receiving an honorable mention for President of the Year!

Last week, we announced our Chapter Awards winners, and this week we want to share our honorable mentions. These chapters and folks also went above and beyond this year and deserve a huge shout out! Thank you for all that you’ve done and continue to do as we finish up this school year.

Join us today for BINGO! 🤩🤩🤩

Happy Final Day of A Week for the Kids!!!!🥳

Mentors and Staff, HERE is your last challenge: Every College Mentors volunteer should post a favorite memory they have with their little buddy, buddy family, or staff. This can be as simple as recapping fun activity day or highlighting how much they have grown since you first met them.

We're bringing it back with Day 4 of Week for the Kids!

Mentors, here is your challenge for today: College Mentors volunteers should share a post thanking the mentors in their life. Feel free to be creative in your post by sharing a personal story, anecdote, or genuine words of thanks to a mentor who has affected your life! I strongly suggest to also include a photo of you and your mentor! An example of this is like a Mom, Dad, Coach, Teacher, Dentist, etc.

Be sure to tag us in your posts or comment with them below!!! We love seeing where our mentors got their inspiration.

Happy Day 3 of Week for the Kids!

Here is your challenge for today: Why Wednesday

College Mentors volunteers across the country should share their "why" or reason for being a part of College Mentors for Kids and believing in the power of mentoring. Sharing a photo with your little buddy or the incredible friends you've met at your chapter is encouraged! This post can be short and sweet or long and heartfelt. What's your "why" for dedicating yourself to College Mentors? Be sure to include your personal fundraising page!
