TMP Celebrates 25 Years of Mentoring

Published

This year marks the 25th anniversary of The Mentoring Partnership...and we're pulling out all the stops to celebrate 25 years of mentoring in big ways!


Ambassador Daniel M. Rooney and George L. Miles, Jr. founded TMP in 1995 with the idea that every young person who wants or needs a mentor should have one...all children should have a caring, supportive adult in their lives.  It is this vision that continues to inspire and guide our work today.


Every day, we work to increase the quality and quantity of mentoring by delivering the resources and support that local mentoring programs and volunteers need to succeed.  We design and deliver professional development services for program leaders.  We deliver trainings for volunteers that ensure mentoring opportunities are tailored to the needs and circumstances of young people.


Last year alone, we:

  • Worked with 150+ local formal programs to serve 21,282 young people through mentoring.
  • Assisted 365 Everyday Mentoring programs, helping them add a mentoring lens to their interactions with young people.
  • Provided 657 hours of free technical assistance and training to 49 different programs.
  • Delivered professional development and training to 44 school districts across Western PA.
