Mission Statement
The Metro Mentorship Initiative (TMMI) is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit public charity that provides wraparound support and resources to partners by helping their mentoring causes achieve sustainability and be viable in marginalized communities.
Description
TMMI primarily seeks to be collaborative with entities that facillitates mentoring programs for individuals (children, teens, young adults) from low-income communities. This organization was formed out of a genuine belief that mentoring initiatives must have sustainable resources and tools in order to effectively cause global change. Our agency will provide full-service support to partner entities that focus on serving kids, teens, young adults in four key pillars: EDUCATION, TECHNOLOGY, JOB READINESS/EMPLOYMENT AND PUBLIC HEALTH & FITNESS .
TMMI has been established in direct response to many social problems in the United States of America particularly in Chicago, Illinois. We’d like to help entities cause systemic change to solve issues including, but not limited to, the growing cases of fatherless homes, inner-city orphans and violence in impoverished neighborhoods.
