PURPOSE

The MYPI Mentorship Program, launched in 2020, provides ongoing support to Muslim youth in Colorado to ensure their continued spiritual growth, mental wellbeing, educational, personal, and professional success. The trained MYPI mentors provide support and guidance to their mentees to achieve their personal goals and to become empowered with the Islamic identity and principles to make a positive impact on their communities, environment, and relationships.

WHY

Muslim youth in America grow up in a society that does not value or cater to their needs in accordance to their beliefs and values as a Muslim. They often go to school with, learn from, and end up working for non-Muslims so it is very important for these youth to have appropriate influences in their lives to support their personal growth and empower them to excel in their lives in accordance to Islamic principles.

HOW

Being matched with a Muslim mentor allows these youth to receive the guidance and advice of a successful, professional mentor with the similar background and understanding of being Muslim in America. Our mentors are trained, passionate individuals who want to give back to our community and offer what many of them didn't have the option of when they were younger. Mentees will be able to set and achieve personal, academic, spiritual, professional, and wellness goals with the support of an experienced mentor who understands their struggles.
