Student Mentors offer peer to peer instruction, motivation, encouragement and camaraderie to student ambassadors participating in the student ambassador program working to complete their required service project.
Student Mentors attend all trainings and workshops with student ambassadors, as well as work to build and strengthen their leadership skills with exciting networking events and unique skill building opportunities.
