This video follows four iMentor students from the same Brooklyn high school—and their mentors—through the final months of senior year. As the students navigate the sometimes overwhelming last stretch of the journey to college, their mentors offer support, tactical and emotional, which looks different for each pair. Ultimately these differences reveal the unique power of mentoring to help first-generation students succeed in college. At iMentor, we believe that who you know is as important as what you know. That’s why we tap into our people power – our community of mentors – to build meaningful relationships that drive social and economic mobility. As they succeed in school and in the workforce, iMentor students become part of the next generation of leaders. An investment in iMentor has the potential to impact not only today’s students, but also future generations of families. Learn more at donate.imentor.org/nextgen/
