Mentoring at Randleman Elementary
Although we already have a great mentoring opportunity at the Dream Center, after school hours may not work for you. We have partnered with Randleman Elementary to provide mentoring services to children at the school. Meeting a child during your lunch really does make an impact in the child’s life.
