Strengthening youth and community through a culture of mentoring since 2009

Thank You for Your Support!

I want to take a moment to thank our mentors, mentees, families, individual supporters and the Twinfield Community for helping us keep our mentoring pairs connected during these unprecedented times. It has taken a tremendous amount of flexibility and creative thinking to stay connected, but our Tt mentoring pairs are making it happen. We have enjoyed socially distant visits, virtual mentoring meet ups and personal letters and notes. We are so thankful to the amazing adults and youth working together to make these adjustments possible. 

And to our financial supporters, a special thank you from our youth for keeping our mentoring program afloat this year. Our personal connections are more important than ever, and Twinfield Together would not be possible without the generous support of our individual donors like you.

I wish you all a
happy, healthy and safe fall. Please reach out if you have any specific questions, it is always my pleasure to talk about our Tt mentoring community.

Sincerely, 
Pam Quinn, Program Director

Socially Distant Visits

Following Covid-19 safety measures, mentoring pairs have been enjoying socially distant visits. Spending time outside, mentors and mentees are able to connect in person for walks and catching up. 

Zoom Meet Ups!

Zoom Meetings have been scheduled so there is a consistent and fun way to meet each week. Mentoring pairs are able to use their time to read books, play games, and catch up with one another.  

Pen Pals

Mentors and mentees are staying in touch with pen pal letters, pictures and notebooks. It has been an exciting way to stay connected because receiving mail is so fun. Click here to see what mentors and mentees have to say to each other. 

Peer Leadership

Peer leadership offers high school students an opportunity to focus on topics they believe are important in both the local community, and the world at large. A group of high school students are currently working hard to develop workshops and educational programming regarding identity, bias, and equity for elementary school students. 
Running for Twinfield Together

Nick & his Mentee Kerrick
Having Nick as my mentor is fun and Nick did this fundraiser so other kids could have a fun experience as well.” 

Nick ran 88 miles & raised $2,221 towards our $3,500 Fundraising Goal

Nick Wood, our newest Tt community mentor, spent 4 months running to raise money for TTMP.  Although Nick did not complete his full goal, we are incredibly impressed with his drive, resiliency, and commitment to Twinfield’s students. What an amazing role model! A big thank you to Nick for modeling the importance of setting goals and working hard to reach them! Click here to read the full story and donate to Nick's fundraiser!
