My Mentoring Program

Just some background info on my mentoring program if you’d like to understand it…

First of all, its called DREAM and its influenced me more than college has. DREAM stands for Directing through Recreation Education Adventures and Mentoring

We meet Fridays at 315 and work with kids from an affordable housing community in Milton VT. They all are amazing kids but come from a really rough place. They are all exposed to sex, drugs, violence every day and as a mentoring group we do our best to show them that there is more to life if they make the right decisions. We help them with anything personal/school related, let them try new things like rock climbing, ice skating, and even trips to NYC, and just try our best to be good role-models to them.
