A Mentoring Program

Campus Pals was created in the fall of 2003. The program has connected NC State students with area children in need of an adult mentor. This program is a partnership between CSLEPS and the YMCA of the Triangle - Alexander Family YMCA. Pals will be screened and selected during September of 2011 and are asked to commit to the program from October 2011 - April 2012.

Pals Time Commitment: 3:45 - 5:45pm

Campus Pals are matched with a child enrolled at Wiley Elementary School who participates in a YMCA after school program. In this type of relationship, volunteers meet with a child on Wednesday afternoons from 4-5:30pm during the after school program. The program plans to meet with the children here on the NC State campus most Wednesday's and will provide transportation for all NC State Campus Pals for off campus events.
