Trustworthy. Good listener. Confidant....

Friend. Tutor. Reliable. Advocate. Role model…

These are just a few of the words that come to mind when we think of our REACH Memphis mentors. When the pandemic led to months of isolation our mentors quickly adapted to virtual mentoring, going above and beyond to stay connected with our students, staff and with each other.  Their words of encouragement and actions of support became the benchmarks of positivity and growth for our students.  We celebrate the work of our magnificent mentors and thank the Grizzlies Charitable Foundation for making this program possible throughout this most extraordinary year.
