Mentoring began in October 2009, and College Mentors for Kids is an award-winning, highly-recognized organization at The Ohio State University. We couldn't be happier to represent the first chapter in the state of Ohio.

Every week, we host 96 local first- through fourth-graders on campus for one-on-one mentoring with a college student and structured activities focused on Higher Education & Career, Culture & Diversity, and Community Service.

Be sure to go through our website to learn more about the program and how you can get involved. Start learning more here.


"At the end of the day, kids are just kids, whether they're in the first grade or freshmen in college. College Mentors for Kids is a unique program that leverages that natural connection, pairing youth with college student mentors to expose children as young as six to the opportunities and excitement of higher education."
