[YEP-DC] Want a teenager to think you're the coolest? Mentor with Capital Partners for Education!

Join us for our next mentor training Thursday, March 14 from 6-9pm!

 

Capital Partners for Education (CPE) works with motivated, low-income high school students as they strive to reach their goals of attending and succeeding in college. Most will be the first in their families to do so. By becoming a mentor, you have the opportunity to show our youth a window into worlds beyond their neighborhoods while having fun!

 

If you are a college graduate and work in the DC metro area, you already have all the right skills to succeed in this program. We know how busy you are and have designed a program that is flexible to work with your schedule. We provide the training and ongoing support you will need throughout your mentoring relationship, so all you need to do is be yourself!

 

Only 40% of low-income students will enter college. Only 8% will finish.

Sharing just 6 hours a month with a high school student can change this.

 

Since inception, 99% of Capital Partners for Education (CPE) graduates have gone on to college, and an amazing 70% have graduated.
 
This mentor training will be held at Destination DC located conveniently in Chinatown!

901 7th St. NW, #400
