I'm not going to tell you what your role should be; that's for you to discover. But I am going to ask you to play your part; ask you to stand up; ask you to put your foot firmly into the current of history."Barack Obama, Colorado Springs, July 2, 2008Last year, more than 375,000 individuals responded by seeking information about local mentoring programs that need more volunteers.Research has shown that programs that rely on volunteer mentors can play a powerful role in reducing drug abuse and youth violence while greatly enhancing a young person's prospects for leading a healthy and productive life.National Mentoring Month is spearheaded by the Harvard Mentoring Project of the Harvard School of Public Health, MENTOR/National Mentoring Partnership, and the Corporation for National and Community Service. Media partners include: CBS, FOX, NBC, MTV, Comcast, Time Warner, and the National Association of Broadcasters.As a highlight of National Mentoring Month 2009, Thank Your Mentor Day™ will be celebrated on January 22. On that day, many Americans will reach out to thank or honor those individuals who encouraged and guided them, and had a lasting impact on their lives.Thank Your Mentor Day™ promotes "Four Ways to Honor Your Mentor":1) contact your mentor directly to express your appreciation;2) pass on what you received by becoming a mentor to a young person in your community;3) make a financial contribution to a local mentoring program; and,4) write a tribute to your mentor for posting on www.WhoMentoredYou.org.Roger MadisonCEO, iZaniaGo to http://www.izania.com/forums/ to share your personal strategy with the iZania community***************************************************This Online Journal was brought to you by InterServe Networks.
