We believe that every child needs an advocate and a mentor – someone to encourage them, to serve as a role model, to praise their efforts. Someone to promote the sparkle in their eye and someone to teach them how to shine. For students who do not have that kind of relationship at home, a mentor can provide that support by building a special friendship with a student.

"I have personally been a mentor with CIS for 8 years. I can attest to the power of the mentoring relationship, the positive changes it can make in the life of the student. I have observed firsthand the academic progress and behavioral improvement that can result from a mentoring relationship. More importantly, I have been involved in increasing a student’s sense of self-worth and have watched the growth that can occur when a child begins to realize the tremendous potential he possesses within himself.” ~Ted Smith, Chairman~
