Support me as a mentor for young people with Upside

$820 of $1,000 goal
Given by 12 generous donors in around 3 months

Due to COVID-19, Upside has lost almost $100,000 in funding, which has put the support for young people at risk.

Auckland

I give my time each week to mentor an awesome 16 year old in Auckland. I'm doing this through a great organisation called Upside. We hang out once a week, have built an awesome relationship and I want to keep it going for the next year.

As part of the programme we get to go to awesome events like camp, beach day, movies, rock climbing etc., which lots of the young people don't normally get a chance to do.

Due to COVID-19, Upside has lost almost $100,000 in funding which has put these awesome experiences at risk. Would you help me in my mentoring journey to make sure my young person and I can keep doing these awesome things together?
