Welcome back to campus, or if you’re new to the Wolfpack, welcome for the first time! I wanted to share an amazing opportunity for students to get involved in a meaningful way this year.
College Mentors for Kids is a national nonprofit that pairs college students with elementary-aged kids for one-on-one mentorship throughout the academic year. Here at NC State, our chapter meets weekly on campus, providing students the chance to mentor kids from local elementary schools, build leadership skills, and make a real difference in the community. I’ve advised the NC State chapter for nearly five years, and each year I am more and more impressed with our student leadership and with the impact they have on their “little buddies.”
Please pass this along to any student you think might be interested. Questions can be sent to: ncsucollegementorsforkids@

Students must fill out the Mentor Application first before signing up for an interview. Otherwise, we will be unable to process them in our database and will not be able to register them for an interview.
The Mentor Application is due September 8th, and interviews will be held from September 5th through September 15th. Our Mentor positions are largely accepted on a rolling basis, but priority will be given to those who apply by the deadline.
