Ivy League Mentoring is a non-profit organisation that provides individual and group mentoring by current Ivy League college students to high school students from underserved communities. We inspire the students, help increase academic performance, and aid with the college-application process. We strive to help low-income students who come from difficult backgrounds.
Ivy League Mentoring has partnered with two high schools (August Martin and Lawrence), allowing us to assist over 3,000 students. We have several volunteers who dedicate their time and energy without financial compensation because they are motivated by the same desire to lift the next generation of students while still in the formative stages of their educational development. In fact, we have been awarded the Presidential Service Award for our service.
The value we deliver to students from some of the worst performing schools in the nation are several. In particular, we assist students at risk of dropping out and struggling with their classes. In sum, we are a non-profit, free opportunity for students to learn from an early age about the process by which anyone can eventually earn a chance at greatness and become a student at their dream university. We have been able to help thousands of disadvantaged and marginalised students, and we look forward to helping many more.
