Sunburst Youth Academy - Why Become a Sunburst Mentor?

Thank you for considering being a mentor for a Sunburst Youth Academy candidate. Sunburst Youth Academy is a unique opportunity for a young person who has dropped out, or is struggling in school. It truly is a "second chance" to turn a life around. A very important part of this program is the involvement of mentors like you. When a candidate has a mentor who is committed to helping them succeed, he or she is much more likely to finish the program and return to his/her community as a productive citizen. We know that your time is precious, but this opportunity is life changing for both of you.
