Our Mission
Mentor A Promise empowers students experiencing housing instability to build resilience and opportunity through mentorship, education, and social-emotional support.
Our Story
At Mentor A Promise, our story is one of purpose and determination. We were founded with a clear mission: to support youths and families living in NYC shelters and break the cycle of homelessness. From the very beginning, we recognized the immense potential within each individual and sought to provide them with the educational resources and opportunities needed to succeed. Through partnerships with family shelters, educational institutions, and community organizations, we have built a strong network that supports youths experiencing homelessness and helps them overcome adversity and forge their own path towards a brighter future.
