Minnesota Inner City Outings (MN ICO) volunteers lead monthly outdoor trips for inner city youth in Minneapolis and Saint Paul. Outings include day hikes, backpacking, canoeing, camping, skiing, and other activities designed to introduce youth to their natural environment outside of the city. MNICO volunteers are provided with an initial introduction to the program and over time become secondary and primary leaders who guide trips.
No personal equipment or previous experience is necessary. MNICO is affiliated with the Sierra Club. | | | A.C.E.S. (Athletes Committed to Educating Students)
A.C.E.S. operates a four-day a week tutoring/mentoring program for inner-city children. The A.C.E.S. framework includes long-term, after-school programming that enrolls students in grade four and continues to work with them until high school graduation. A new fourth grade class starts each year at our elementary school sites. What makes A.C.E.S. unique is a sports-themed curriculum, based on state and national learning standards; united commitment from all the professional sports teams in the state, including the Minnesota Lynx, Thunder, Timberwolves, Twins, Vikings, and Wild; and three-phase curriculum design and learning process, and linkages to local classrooms. | | | Augsburg Fairview Academy
Are you interested in mentoring high school youth but don't have time to meet? Become an E-Mentor for Augsburg Fairview Academy! The commitment is writing to your E-Mentee twice a month and attending an event once per semester. If you are not in the local area, that's okay! You can still participate in the e-mentoring program, but we will need to know that you are unable to attend the meet-up events. The e-mentoring program will be conclude by late April or mid May. Interested mentors should contact us at mentoring@afa.tc. | | | BestPrep EMentors
eMentors provides students with caring adult e-mentors to help them link their learning to the world of work. There is solid evidence that effective mentoring programs can change the direction of a youth's life. E-mentoring offers students the chance to develop a relationship with one or more adults, other than parents and teachers, who become friends, role models and advocates for them. Goals include: Students understand the relationship between learning and their future career. Students have the opportunity to interact with a business professional, gain exposure to how technology is used in the workplace, and to connect the class curriculum to its relevance in the workplace. Students feel the support of the community and connect with an adult interested in their success after high school. Students gain skills in electronic communication. | | | Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Twin Cities
We have been matching young people with caring, adult mentors for 88 years. Our mission is to enrich the lives of young people through one-to-on friendships. Mentoring a young person is one of the most rewarding things that we can do to make our communities stronger by giving our kids positive reinforcement and helping them grow into more engaged citizens. All it takes is getting together with a Little Brother or Sister to do things you both enjoy. The young people in BBBS’ programs don’t care what you do; they just want to have fun and maybe learn a thing or two from a consistent, caring adult. | | | Bloomington Public Schools, Volunteer Connection, K-12 Programs
