Celebrating Austin mentors

January is National Mentoring Month and United Way Capital Area wants to celebrate our 1 Hour for Kids local mentors.

Meet Janet Calhoun, an MBA student at UT Austin who has mentored a student through Breakthrough Austin since Aug. 2009.

" I don’t have a lot of free time in business school, so volunteering at Breakthrough has been a perfect way for me to utilize my passion in education and working with students. I have learned that just a few hours a week is a very rewarding experience for both the students and me."

Make a difference in your community by becoming a 1 Hour for Kids mentor today!
