Mission and Program Overview

Mission

The purpose of the "Mentors 4 College" corporation is to provide free mentoring to high school students with the goal of helping them find their "ideal" post-secondary educational path and institution, and then apply to that institution. We aim to level the playing field for all high school students interested in college, regardless of income or ethnicity.

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
Founded in 2011 with initial sponsorship from Parkway North High School in St. Louis County, Mentors 4 College (M4C) operates entirely through volunteers. Since its inception, M4C has assisted almost 2,000 students and families, experiencing significant growth from 60 students and 20 mentors in 2011 to 400 students and 65 mentors in 2024. We have provided services to 7,000 individual clients, including students, parents and guardians, as well as school counselors and administrators in dozens of St Louis area high schools and many more across the country. Given the overwhelming demands on high school counselors, M4C's mission is to supplement their efforts and extend their reach, working with students and parents to identify post-high school educational programs aligning with career interests, academics, social factors, and financial considerations. With a robust mentoring program, a comprehensive, scalable training curriculum and a full range of mentor support systems, M4C is expanding into the St. Louis Promise Zone. Our diversity initiative aims to serve at-risk communities and BIPOC students across the region. Currently, 35% of our students are minorities or from distressed communities. Meanwhile, our move from in-person to virtual mentoring caused by the recent pandemic has spurred signups by students from across the country. Three quarters of our students are from the St Louis region, with the remaining one quarter from more than 100 high schools in 20 states.$0$23,369
