Trusted Mentors Invites you to Stay Home

Help Us Reach Our Goal of $5,000 By March 31!

Image While you enjoy an evening in the warmth of your own home, help others stay housed. Make a donation to Trusted Mentors, and make a difference in the lives of people overcoming homelessness and poverty.

Your financial support helps mentors support people at-risk for homelessness. We have raised over $2,100 so far this month, but we need your help to reach our $5,000 goal by March 31!

Give today, and double your impact. Your contribution will be matched dollar for dollar with a $5,000 matching grant. You can donate online or mail your gift to Trusted Mentors at 872 Virginia Avenue, Indianapolis, IN 46203


All contributors will be entered to win one custom home portrait created by local artist, Judy Bryon (www.ivyandarches.com). This prize, valued at $200, includes an 8X10 illustration, matted to fit an 11x14 frame (not provided) and a set of 20 note cards. (The winner must provide photographs of his/her home).

Make a secure on-line donation.


Give Today. Help Young Women Like Megan!
Megan & Caroline were matched in September 2009. Megan was a resident of Craine House, a work release program for women with pre-school age children. Megan's son was one, born in prison. Caroline helped Megan succeed at Craine House, where she received help finding employment, working towards a GED, improving parenting skills, and gaining self-esteem. Megan successfully completed her time at Craine House, found a job, and has moved out into her own place. She's devoted to her son and very determined to overcome a difficult childhood and past mistakes to build a responsible life. Her mentor has provided her with encouragement and life skills needed to successfully transition into an independent, positive life.
