Mentor commitment agreement || National background investigation

Think back to when you were a kid. Who was the person, other than a parent, who brightened your day, just by being there? By becoming a TOVA mentor, you can be that person in the life of a child, through a relationship that will change your life, and a child's forever.

Being a Mentor is something anyone can do, the only requirements are a willingness to be a friend, to have fun, to be consistent and to see the world (and yourself) through the eyes of a young person.

As a Mentor, you and your Mentee will do everyday activities like playing sports, cooking, going over schoolwork, washing the car, taking a walk, volunteering in their community, or just hanging out. And as in any friendship, it is the spontaneous, small moments of shared fun or discovery that you will remember forever. That is the magic a Mentor brings to the life of a child-and that a Mentee brings to the life of a Mentor.

A Mentor can open a world of possibilities and opportunities for a young person simply by being a genuine friend. Our Mentors consistently say that they get even more out of their friendship than the Mentees, and our Mentees grow into adults who want to be involved themselves and help another child.
