Mentoring Programs

We offer two transformative, one-on-one mentoring programs, made available to all of Lee County's public high schools and middle schools.

  • Take Stock in Children is a statewide scholarship program for at-risk students that provides a unique opportunity for deserving students from low-income homes to escape the cycle of poverty through education.
  • Student Advocacy & Mentoring Partnership (STAMP) offers low-income students the opportunity to achieve success by providing college and career planning resources and mentoring. Students in STAMP are also offered community scholarships, which they can apply for.
