My candidate has PROVEN to reduce crime, teen pregnancy, teen drop out rates, abortion and divorce.
No other candidate is willing to promise that.
No other candidate could ever actually accomplish that.
Without further ado, I am endorsing...
MENTORING for PRESIDENT
Here's why:
Children who have role models are:
46 % less likely to use drugs or alcohol
53% less likely to skip school
33% less likely to resort to violence
59% more likely to get better grades
My local hero in the campaign for mentoring is Scott Anderson. Scott has been a mentor for a young man for many years. What amazes me is that Scott didn't wait until his own kids left for college. Scott did this while raising his own kids. In fact, his mentee is just about the same age as Scott's youngest kids. Scott carved out the time and the energy to be a positive role model in a young man's life.
People like Scott are changing the world.
I'm voting for MENTORING.

Mentoring isn't for the kids who need discipline in class. A mentee is someone who needs an adult in their lives that cares for them, listens, spends quality time with them and doesn't judge them. It is ONE hour a week during the school day on school property. What a better way to make an impression on a young person's life or maybe the young person might make an impression on your life!
