Peer Mentorship Program

For my secondary project I have decided to organize a Peer Mentorship Program in the university I teach in. The students are really in need of some support from their own peers to motivate them to break away from the traditional individualistic success in China.

I have collaborated with 3 Chinese teachers who also teach English and one Psychology teacher to help during training for recruitment and their prospective responsibilities as mentor and mentee.

In the upcoming months we plan to have an orientation session, training, team building events, and our first official member meeting. We need funding to make a solid foundation for the program so that it is truly something stable and the members will feel like they belong to a unique and exclusive organization. With the funding we can create membership cards, a website under the English department, obtain computers to have a secure system to input student information, up-date the website, and have an opportunity for students to interact with other students world-wide through pen-pal.

I really really need everyone's help to support this and donate for the funding to make this happen.





This is the website where you can donate, however big or small, it will tremendously make me happy and proud to know others also care. Thanks in advance!!
