Friends First Workplace-Based Mentoring Program held their closing ceremony at St. Malachy School on Tuesday evening. The event celebrated a successful year of growth, new friendships, and memorable activities between 4th through 6th-grade girls at St. Malachy and their mentor matches from AT&T and TransUnion.
“My goal is to provide the mentors with the tools to teach and expose the girls to values that aren’t typically taught in the school curriculum,” said Tara Lucas, Mentoring Programs Coordinator. “This year, we had the themes of leadership and empowerment. I always told the girls that I want them to apply what they learned in mentoring to their lives in school, family, and community. My hope is that all of these girls are able to thrive as they’re growing up in this world.”
