Mentors are needed during our build season each January through March at our shop located in Modesto, Ca. Students have 6 weeks to build a robot and need adults who work in engineering, programming, project management, CAD, and manufacturing fields to provide leadership and inspiration. The students have shop hours two evenings a week and all day Saturdays. Mentors can choose the times that work for them during these times.

Mentoring high school students is highly rewarding. The students come into the program with not much more than a desire to build a robot and learn how to follow a design process, work heavy machinery, complicated software, and most importantly how to be a part of a team.

If your skills match our needs, we would love to talk with you about becoming a mentor in our program.

My Money Workshop offers our volunteer instructors teaching opportunities within their local working area and/or close to their homes all over the New York Tri-State area. The commitment to volunteer is very manageable— 4 workshops per year. Opportunities to volunteer on a more frequent basis are also available. We are especially in need of instructors who are available to teach in-person virtually during the work day.

The length of workshops is based on particular school or program needs and typically ranges from 1 to 2 hours. The presentation and handout(s) are e-mailed to the client and instructor approximately one week before the scheduled workshop.

MIKE empowers youth to be health leaders through education, mentorship, and community outreach.

Health and education are linked. The level of education is the best predictor of health outcomes. The healthier you are the more likely you are to attain an education. The more education you have, the more likely you are to be healthy. Therefore, MIKE works toward health equity & educational parity.

You will join a teacher-managed classroom and MIKE staff to work with your youth along with a team of other mentors and their assigned youth.

Mentors will take turns providing healthy snacks to the class (paid for by MIKE Program).
