How can you still make an impact in retirement?
You want to remain active and make a meaningful contribution, but modern volunteer opportunities don’t always fit the lifestyle you’ve worked hard to enjoy. T1L1 gives you a role that lets you use your life experience to guide kids who need it most—without taking on a full-time commitment. Your wisdom can be the guidance these kids need, and you can offer it in a way that aligns with your pace and values.

How to become a mentor
Mentors are taken through a complete background check and mentor certification training.
They are placed in a mentor team and paired with a school and group of students for a whole school semester or year.
Each week the mentor team meets with students and guides them through the T1L1 curriculum that teaches universal principles to them.
Mentors work at developing long-term relationships so the students can feel safe asking questions of significance.
