“As Executive Director and co-founder of a non-profit that delivered mentoring programs for at-risk teens, I was privileged to see hundreds of young people blossom as they transformed their lives. When I saw how many more kids can be served with support from the Portland Children’s Fund, I thought, 'Why doesn't Washington County, where I live, have this, too?’ What a difference we could make."
--Susan Bender Phelps, CEO, Odyssey Mentoring LLC
