U.S. Presidential Scholars Foundation Mentorship Program
Presidential Scholars are fortunate to be part of such a vibrant and talented community of individuals. Regardless of professional field or interest, U.S. Presidential Scholars Foundation is committed to providing Scholars with the resources necessary to make connections, develop skills, and serve the global community. The Mentorship Program, led by the Foundation’s Alumni Association Committee, trains mentors and matches mentors with Scholars seeking connections or support in specific areas. From Scholar to Scholar and from community to community, meaningful work and innovation can be built by support networks generated here.
