Australian Youth Mentoring Foundation, Raise, is currently recruiting volunteers from the local community to mentor young people in its best-practice programs running at Riverside Girls High School, Marsden High School and Epping Boys High School. The mentoring programs run March – September, excluding school holidays. Raise matches a young person put forward by the school with a trusted adult in the community who has received free Raise mentor training.
The programs run at the following times:
Riverside Girls High School on Mondays 10.30am -12.30am
Epping Boys High School at Tuesdays 10.40am – 12.40pm
Marsden High School at Friday 10.10am – 12.10pm
Could you or someone you know volunteer your time to ensure young people in your community feel heard, valued and supported?
Visit www.raise.org.au/volunteer to apply today. Applications close on 21 February.
