Join our Mentorship Movement
It takes a community to make a difference, and together, we can transform the lives of our youth for generations to come.
An invitation
We believe in our youth, and that belief drives us to take action. The One Fresno Foundation's Mentorship Movement invites both our youth and adult leaders to join us in shaping Fresno's future.
Through strategic partnerships with the U.S. National Guard's Grizzly Youth Academy and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central California, we are creating meaningful opportunities to invest in every child and make a lasting difference.
