Connect With Your Mentee

MENTOR APLICATION

Welcome to the BAB Foundation Youth Shadowing and Mentorship Program – an enriching opportunity for professionals like you to make a lasting impact on the educational and career journeys of high school and college students from immigrant and refugee backgrounds. As a mentor, you have the power to shape their experiences and guide them toward success.

By dedicating your time to this program, you'll connect with mentees who share your professional interests, fostering a connection that goes beyond the conventional mentor-mentee relationship. Your ability to communicate in their mother tongue adds a layer of cultural understanding, making your guidance even more impactful.

Why Volunteering Your Hours:

  • Becoming a mentor allows you to evolve as a leader in a profoundly impactful way. Your guidance becomes a compass for the next generation, shaping their professional paths and contributing to your legacy as a leader.

  • Mentoring opens doors to meaningful connections. By engaging with mentees, you not only enrich their lives but also weave a tapestry of connections that can bring new perspectives, collaborations, and friendships into your own professional world.

  • Teaching and guiding others acts as a refresher for your own skills. As you share your knowledge, you rediscover the depth of your expertise, reinforcing your proficiency and ensuring your skills remain dynamic and relevant.

  • Witnessing the positive impact of your guidance on a mentee's journey provides a unique sense of fulfillment. It's a heartwarming experience that goes beyond professional achievements, tapping into the intrinsic joy of helping others succeed.

  • The mentorship relationship is a dialogue. While you share your experiences, you also gain fresh perspectives from your mentees. This mutual exchange of insights fosters continuous learning and keeps your professional outlook vibrant and evolving.

  • Beyond professional development, mentoring sparks personal growth. Nurturing the potential in others often mirrors back into your own journey, providing a mirror to reflect on your values, aspirations, and the unique impact you want to make.
