Jump Volunteer

 

About Us/Mission:

JUMP for Kids is all about mentoring for children here in the Pella area. With so much focus on the negative things going on in the world, people sometimes wonder what they can do to actually make a difference. Mentoring changes our world for the better! No, you can't help every person or every child, but you can make a life-changing difference for one child. Our mentors, who are individuals, couples and families, spend a minimum of an hour a week for at least a year with their mentee. The goal for their time together is to build a friendship which will provide encouragement, horizon broadening, support, guidance and fun for their mentee. It's not always easy, but it can be incredibly rewarding!
