At Mentors of Rush County Empowering Youth (M.o.R.E. for Kids), we believe that every child deserves the chance to thrive. Our mission is to transform the lives of Rush County youth through purposeful, one-on-one mentoring relationships with caring adults. By dedicating just 16 hours each month, you can make a lasting impact on a young person's life—and enrich your own in the process.
Children in our community face numerous challenges, from academic pressures to social and emotional hurdles. Having a consistent, supportive mentor can make all the difference.
Mentors provide:
Your involvement can lead to improved academic performance, better social skills, and a brighter future for a child in Rush County. All mentors must be at least 17 years of age.
Get ready for some serious fun! Every month, mentors and mentees in the M.o.R.E. for Kids program are invited to join in on exciting, all-inclusive activities planned by our awesome Program Coordinator. Whether you're diving into a pool day, bouncing your heart out at SkyZone, solving mysteries in an escape room, or brushing up on your table manners at an etiquette dinner—there’s always something new to experience together.
From volunteering with the community to hanging with farm animals, these events are the perfect way to bond, learn, laugh, and make unforgettable memories. All you have to do is show up and enjoy—MoRE fun is always on the calendar!
These activities are made possible through the generous donation of our sponsors.
