Thank Your Mentor Day * January 21, 2016

As a highlight of National Mentoring Month 2016, Thank Your Mentor Day™ will be celebrated January 21. On that day, many Americans will reach out to thank or honor those individuals who encouraged and guided them, and had a lasting, positive impact on their lives.

These are simple ways you can thank your mentor:

1. Contact your mentor directly to express your appreciation;
2. Express your gratitude on social media.
3. Pass on what you received by becoming a mentor to a young person in your community;
4. Make a financial contribution to a local mentoring program in your mentor’s honor; and,
5. Write a tribute to your mentor for posting on the Who Mentored You? website.

You can download a Thank you card from the Campaign Marketing Materials page.

*Thank Your Mentor Day™ is an initiative of the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.
