Our Organization, With Your Support, Improves Lives

Since 2000, Great Life Mentoring has become an Evidence-Based Practice, and worked in partnership with mental health care organizations to provide nearly 100,000 hours of consistency, supportive interactions, and hope to over 1,000 young people. In January 2024, the organization received a generous one-time grant from the Chris and Dee Dee Gibson Foundation to establish a site in Portland, OR. Sustaining partners are now needed to provide on-going services to youth in Portland, OR.
