Do you want to make a difference in a young person’s life? Consider becoming a Monroe Bulldog Buddy. Mentor a K-5th grader at Monroe Elementary School, which is a quick 15-minute walk from Drake. Meet with your mentee at least twice a month and be a positive role model in his or her life.

To learn more, come to an informational session/orientation on Friday, Sept. 21, at 12 p.m. in Olmsted’s Drake Room. Read about a mentor’s experience. Contact kerry.king@drake.edu for more information.
