One Wyoming 1 on 1 is an initiative in the City of Wyoming. The goal is to place 1,100 mentors in the 4 public school districts in Wyoming (Godfrey Lee, Godwin Heights, Kelloggsville, and Wyoming). We are currently about halfway to our goal, with 558 mentors meeting with their mentees.
Our mentors include local business leaders and employees, school staff and administrators, church members, and community leaders. All mentors complete an application, receive a background check and attend a training session before meeting with their mentees. We ask mentors to commit to meeting with their mentees for one hour each week.
More information and a mentor application is available on our website: www.onewyoming1on1.org
