Join the Odyssey Giving Circle
Join The Odyssey, a giving circle of $1,000 donors, committed to the belief that adults play a critical role in positive youth development.
In Homer’s The Odyssey, Odysseus asked his trusted friend, Mentor, to guide and nurture his young son, Telemacchus.
Like Telemacchus, today’s youth need mentors. Healthy mentoring relationships increase a young person’s sense of connectedness to others, which can increase his or her ability to make positive life choices.
Join by pledging $1,000, $2,500 or $5,000. Receive semiannual updates highlighting current mentoring research or exciting and relevant news and stories from mentoring programs around the state. And with your gift, consider honoring a mentor in your life by allowing Oregon Mentors to send them a personalized thank you card from you.
Like Odysseus, you are trusting mentors to guide our youth on their journey into adulthood. Thank you for investing in their important work.
