Connecting Kids. Building Confidence. Strengthening Community.
Since 1988, Mentor Chippewa, a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization, has been dedicated to helping youth thrive through the power of one-on-one mentoring. We’ve partnered with schools across the Chippewa Valley to create safe, supportive spaces where students and caring adults connect, grow, and make a difference — together.
We believe in meeting kids exactly where they are — celebrating their strengths, supporting them through challenges, and helping them build the confidence to succeed in school and beyond. Because when days go better — years go better!
What We Do
We bring our school-based mentoring program directly into local schools, making it easy for mentors and students to meet one-on-one, during the school day, for just 30 minutes a week. It’s a small commitment with a big impact.
Why It Matters
Mentors offer encouragement, connection, and perspective — especially on the tough days. And every student deserves to have someone in their corner.
Want to Get Involved?
If you believe in helping young people realize their full potential and grow into empowered, engaged members of our community, you’ve come to the right place. There’s a place for you at Mentor Chippewa — whether as a mentor, donor, sponsor, or school partner!
