3 REASONS TO BECOME A MENTOR

01 

Give Back

Being a mentor is an incredibly rewarding opportunity to give back to your community. By sharing your experiences and perspectives, you can help empower a young person to reach their full potential. Mentoring also provides a much needed safe space for youth to talk about what they’re struggling with and will hopefully inspire your mentees to one day give back in the same way.

02 

Change a Life

Mentors can make a lasting impact on the lives of youth – studies show that having a mentor improves a young person’s self-esteem, behavior, attitudes and relationships, as well as develops their personal strengths and abilities. It is likely that being a mentor will change another life - your own - by learning about yourself and being of reminded of what really matters.

03 

Shape the Future

Every young person deserves the opportunity to have a great future, and mentoring a youth in your own community is a powerful way to invest in the next generation.

SUSIE
YB4C MENTOR

"I became a YB4C mentor because I wanted to give back to my community, but it’s become so much more than that. I love seeing my mentee’s boxing improve through the semester, and become more confident and self assured. They truly inspire me. YB4C is more than just a boxing program, it’s a community. Wether it’s working out, volunteering, or just hanging out, it’s nice to know you have someone in your corner."

“YB4C is not just about showing kids boxing skills, the program also shows young ones how to focus on helping people in the surrounding communities. Being a mentor gives me a sense of wellbeing, knowing that I can help reach young ones to make better choices in life brings me happiness. I’m extremely proud and honored to be a YB4C Mentor.”

“When I found Youth Boxing for Change’s mentorship program, not only did I have an opportunity to pay it forward by joining a community dedicated to helping teens from under resourced communities improve their boxing skills, but I felt satisfied that I was helping to mold the next generation into compassionate and confident young adults.”
