Thank a Mentor

November is National Gratitude Month, a time to celebrate and give thanks. It is the perfect opportunity to remember how important it is that we teach and model the power of gratitude to children.

One way to do that...think of the mentors in your life and thank them. Maybe it was the coach who encouraged you to keep going, or the guidance counselor who insisted your dreams were within reach. I'm sure we all have one or more people who made a difference in your life, so let's say thanks to those very special people.

The power of mentorship lies in the moments that spark curiosity, aspiration, and inspire potential. Even the littlest of moments can grow into big ones -- with a little encouragement, a little hope, and a little inspiration.

Another way to thank your mentor(s)...become one yourself! It just takes a little time, a little encouragement, and a laugh or two, so that every child has what -- and who -- they need to achieve a BIG and brighter future. Find out how you can help. Go to https://www.bigsinberks.org/become-a-big
