It's Not
Nothing
But when I found out about this app, my life changed. I have someone who is like a sister figure in my life.
A, 15
My Mentor made me realize life doesn't end over a boy and there is still more to life
C, 15
he just wants to talk to me. That is something I don't experience every day.
J, 16
I love my mentor. She is so positive and kind and she really knows what to say and when to say it.
R, 15
she's made me feel comfortable enough to have conversations about things others may say is stupid or boring.
