Does Mentoring Really Matter Today?

March 25, 2012 - PRLog -- Has the thought of making a positive impact in youth ever crossed your mind? The I.B.I.C.A. (I Believe I Can Achieve) Program is striving to find matches for youth; male youth mostly. Nationwide, women volunteer to mentor children three times as often as men, and this trend is also true with The I.B.I.C.A. Program. To meet the increasing need for male volunteers, The I.B.I.C.A. Program has launched a “Man Drive” which aims to bring in 100 men in 100 days.

According to Colin Powell, mentoring one of the best investments you can make to ensure our country remains strong. The I.B.I.C.A. Program offers a variety of opportunities to work with children and can accommodate varying schedules. If you take the opportunity to mentor a child, it comes with great rewards. You are molding a mind for the future to do great things. Mentoring is one way we can give back to our community. Become a Mentor, Our future depends on it! Whatever your interests are, a child and an opportunity awaits you.
