MENTOR Nebraska, an organization that advocates for youth mentoring and the activities of its member agencies, is celebrating National Mentoring Month this January by launching its 8th annual mentor recruitment campaign. The local campaign is aligned with a national campaign led by MENTOR National, a nonprofit that serves as an advocate and resource for mentoring organizations. The campaign was announced today at a virtual multi-agency media conference presented by MENTOR Nebraska with support from Omaha Mayor Jean Stothert. Mayor Stothert shared that MENTOR Nebraska will receive a $10,000 grant from the City of Omaha to assist with mentor recruitment as part of the campaign.
