Mission Statement
The MISSION of the Atlanta CARES Mentoring Movement is to secure and transform the lives of underserved children by inspiring, recruiting and mobilizing masses of caring men and women to mentor and nourish them. Our national volunteer affiliate network connects adults to local youth-serving organizations. Our national group-mentoring programs focus on the emotional, social and academic development of our children and the wellness of the adults who parent, care for and mentor them.
About This Cause
Atlanta CARES is a galvanizing force working on behalf of mentoring organizations in desperate need of volunteers, particularly minority volunteers. We are leading the mentor-recruitment movement focused on closing the huge gap between the relatively few available mentors and the thousands of children in Metropolitan Atlanta who need caring mentors, tutors, and role models. Through our youth match mentoring program, we have addressed the core needs of the youth and young adults we serve through our mission: establishing a personal relationship with a caring adult capable of providing positive feedback and facilitating the development of students' self-efficacy. Since our inception, we have supported struggling families with hard to reach children by recruiting and training caring adults poised to make a difference within the community by making a difference within the life of a child. Through the support of our partners, Atlanta CARES has impacted thousands of youth through mentoring and direct services including academic tutoring, and coaching, reducing dropout rates, and influencing their post-secondary college and career success.
