Impact a Student for a Lifetime … and Beyond!
A Christian non-denominational Mentoring program for Students (ages 8-12), fully supported by T4C ( Tuscarawas County Council for Church & Community ).
Youth Boosters provides positive adult role models ( Boosters ) for “at risk” students who are in need of …extra Support & Guidance.
This special Mentoring relationship gives the student a vitally important “Boost” that Lasts a Lifetime …and Beyond!
Students in 3rd-6th grade throughout Tuscarawas County are referred to the program by their Guidance Counselors and Principals …with Parental consent.
The “at - risk” students are then matched with an adult who spends (1-6) hours per week with them. We pay our boosters a stipend plus reimburse them for expenses (up to $25/month).
Together they work toward Individual Goals (spiritual, academic, social, cultural, athletic) which are mutually devised by parents, boosters, school personnel and the program coordinator.
The Youth Booster Coordinator plans monthly (usually Saturday) activities for learning & fun, maintains ongoing contact with the family, school personnel and gives oversight to the mentoring and achievement goals.
Youth Boosters was instituted in 1980 with the assistance of The American Association of University Women, and since then many students have benefited from the Learning experiences, the Fun activities and the Summer Camp opportunities.
The Youth Booster Program has proven to truly make a difference in the lives of many “at - risk” students ...over and over again!
Boosters must be at least 21 years old, possess High Integrity, a Well Balanced Lifestyle plus … Truly Love young students.
We live in challenging times indeed and our next generation could use your help by … Paying it Forward .
