Cayman: Help a student succeed in life – sign up to become a mentor

From Cayman Islands Chamber of Commerce

Looking forf Mentees

George Town, Cayman Islands – [18 July 2024] – Are you seeking a rewarding
opportunity to make a meaningful impact on a student’s life? Mentoring Cayman,
a programme begun 20 years ago by the Cayman Islands Chamber of
Commerce, is now accepting applications for the 2024/25 school year. It can
make a big difference in the lives of the mentees, as well as those who volunteer
as mentors. Sharing your knowledge, wisdom, and life experiences can be
exceptionally rewarding, and many mentors sign up for a second – and then a
third time.

Mentoring Cayman

Mentoring Cayman is a six-month youth programme that connects mentors from
all industry sectors with enthusiastic mentees at the top of their class, fostering
relationships that can last a lifetime

The new programme for 2024- 2025 begins in October, but the deadline for
volunteer mentors is September. You must complete a Darkness to Light
programme, submit a valid police clearance, and submit the application form.

“Being part of the Chamber of Commerce Mentorship program for the third
consecutive year fills me with a sense of fulfilment and responsibility towards my
mentees. Guiding them in making decisions for their bright future is truly
rewarding,” said Jed Davis Ancheta.

About Mentoring Cayman
Since 2002, the Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the Ministries of
Education and Youth, has provided students with the guidance they need
through Mentoring Cayman. The programme pairs a high-achieving year 11
public or private school student nominated by their principal with an influential
and motivated business, community, or public leader.
