MVP MENTORSHIP: JUNE 2021

We’re connecting youth minorities, with some of the top minority voices in today's culture who are breaking barriers to help open doors to the next generation of leaders. Mentors have been recognized as game changers in their respective industries.

The MVP Mentorship Program is focused on ensuring youth minorities are exposed to the realities of their career aspirations. By sharing information and life experiences, minority mentors can help minority mentees understand the pathways to success, value of education, and race in the workforce.

How It Works

 

Mentors + Mentees

 

Business professionals and students with an interest in Entrepreneurship, Music, Sports or Fashion will be paired together for the month long program. MVP Leadership will qualitatively evaluate every submission and assign the strongest entry to each mentor based on the merit of submission. If chosen, mentees will earn four 30-minute Zoom video call meetings with their mentor and MVP Leadership will help prepare both the mentee and the mentor for success.

  • 25 years or older
