The Mazie Mentoring Program is looking for caring and committed adults to mentor high school students at Framingham, Waltham, and Marlborough high school. Each year, the Mazie Mentoring Program recruits local adults to show students how to set goals and prepare for college and adulthood. During the program, students complete specific goals with the help of a mentor, like volunteering for a community service project or completing a college essay. The Mazie program was founded in 1999 in memory of John Andrew Mazie and has served over 900 students since. The program first started at Framingham High School in 1999, and then later branched out to students at Waltham High School and Marlborough High School. If you're interested in volunteering as a mentor, contact Brandon Portillo at brandon.portillo@bbbscm.org or visit the Mazie program website. | |
