VIP Mentoring Success Story #2

Mentee:  Edward H

Mentor: David H - link to David's testimonial

Dear To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Edward H. and I am twelve years old.  VIP Mentoring Program has helped me succeed in and out of school.  I have been with my mentor for little over a year now.  We attend picnics, go to the movies and etc.  We also take the time to sit down and talk about school and other things.  My father and mother were killed 8 – 10 years ago and my grandmother is now my guardian.  She brought me to the program because she couldn’t do all the things that we wanted to do.  Now I can, ever since I joined the VIP program.  We need to keep this program because it helps and teaches kids my age and older to become more aware of themselves in and out of school.  They sometimes don’t get to experience things either because your parents are in jail or are dead.  VIP helps us to stop dwelling on the past and to look toward the future.  I plan to be apart of VIP until I turn 18 years of age.  I will then finish high school and college.  By then I would like to come back and give what I learned to other kids in much need of help and guidance.  So please keep this program!

Sincerely,

Edward H.
Detroit, MI
