One Hour a week!

Have you ever longed to serve the community locally? This Fall Willow Creek is partnering with Kids Hope USA. Kids Hope is an award winning national mentoring program that works exclusively through local churches, teaching them to engage their members in one-on-one relationships with at-risk public elementary school children.

Our hope is that Kid's Hope that will train and develop mentors to build into the lives of vulnerable students. Then we hope to have mentoring partnerships with schools in Cary, Fox River Grove, Carpentersville, Algonquin, Sleepy Hollow and the Dundees

The commitment for a mentor after our Willow Creek/Kids Hope training is to give one hour a week (before school, during the school lunch hour or after school) to one child. School personnel consistently report that many children involved with a Kids Hope trained mentor exhibit significant change in academic performance, attitude, attendance and behavior. Check out this video:



So, if you have the desire to make a huge difference in the life of an at-risk child, come to our mentor training at Willow Creek on Saturday, October 16th from 8:00-11:00AM. Registration is through classes. Go to https://classes.willowcreek.org/default.aspx?page=3258&profile=3672&eventid=3672&pageid=3240&sort=Date&pprofile=102
