Fifteen mentoring programs in Newark have signed on to hold booths at the fair in hopes to recruit dedicated individuals to become mentors in the community.

At the fair, mentors will find the program that is the right fit for them, such as donating four hours a month or more or working with fourth-graders or high school seniors. The NMM will work to match you with a program that is a right fit for you.

There will be music, food, and free Barnum and Bailey tickets!

The NMM is nonprofit organization dedicated to transforming the community through positive mentoring relationships.
