The Mindful Mentors Planting Seeds Summer Program has been operating since 2012 and services over 40 students each summer.  MMPS is a program in which students receive curricular instruction, get college exposure and eat a healthy breakfast/lunch.  Student-athletes lead & participate in daily Community Meetings, go on weekly field trips to culturally & educationally relevant locations, and take part in special events.  We promote health, wellness, and leadership.  

 

The Mindful Mentors Summer Program is not just an ordinary program.  The majority of the student-athletes return summer after summer to engage in the great activities that we offer.  As the student-athletes complete multiple years in the program, they then return to actually work in the program as a mentor.  We have created an ongoing cyclical process that proves our student-athletes are fully immersed and benefitting from being a part of the organization.   They too, are giving back to the youth in their community.  Mindful Mentors is more focused than ever on equipping scholars with the tools they need to meet success.
