LETTER: Mentors truly make a difference in children’s lives

We all need others to share our ups and downs, to encourage us, or to just be there. If you want to be a special friend who fills these needs for a child, please consider joining the Madison County Mentor Program. Your student will not be the only one who benefits: Mentors say, “This has been the most rewarding experience of my life.”

Become a part of this ever-growing program as the community unites to make a lasting impact on our children’s lives. Please offer your friendship and counsel to help meet personal and academic goals of one of over a thousand students waiting for a mentor.

Please become a mentor. You can make a difference. For more information, contact me at 706-338-3689 or mcmentor@madison.k12.ga.us. The Madison County Mentor Program is sponsored by the Madison County Board of Education, the Madison County Family Connection, and the Madison County Chamber of Commerce.

Sincerely,

Shirley Aaron
