Mentor For All Initiatives

OVERVIEW

Mentor for all Initiative is a project where individuals, who believe in empowerment Mentor young kids in underserved communities in Africa through virtual platforms, without having to leave their location.

Queentrepreneur Women Foundation will provide the platform, we will organize virtual training, excursions, and book clubs, etc. This is a way to broaden the minds of young kids, build their confidence, train them in decision making, allowing them to express creativity and innovations, and allowing them to explore more of their inner abilities and the importance of education and school.

The COVID-19 pandemic is revolutionizing digital and online education globally but kids in rural and underserved communities in Africa, are being left behind as they are not equipped to adapt or transition to the new methods of learning. The Mentor for All Initiative will not only bridge this gap but also inspire these young individuals to aspire to be better.
