Right now, 1 in 3 young people will grow up without a mentor of any kind. Be a part of sparking change in Greater Cincinnati and invest in Adopt A Class.

I am a board member for Adopt A Class because I believe in the work we are doing. With your support, Adopt A Class will be able to recruit, train, and match businesses and civic groups, as mentors, with students in high poverty classrooms all across our region.

The Cincinnati region has the 5th highest rate of childhood poverty in the US. We are working to end this epidemic by bringing career-focused, school-based mentoring to 5,000+ children every year. Adopt A Class mentors expand the horizons for our regions children, enabling them to dream BIG and work towards GREAT things for their future.

My goal for this campaign is to personally raise $2,000. If we raise that amount, we will be able to:

Provide an entire year of mentoring for 4 teams
Sponsor educational field trips for over 10 classrooms
Bring Adopt A Class STE(A)M programming and all required materials to more than 20 classrooms
Create curriculum specifically tailored to the needs of students in over 40 classrooms
Provide more than 80 specialized training sessions to new mentors.

With your gift, you will help us continue this important work in our community!
