What is D2S:Mentor?
D2S:Mentors are volunteers who act as co-pilots, supporting and guiding youths in their school-to-work transition. While most visible in the Foundry programme, our volunteer mentors are a core support to D2S beneficiaries as we accompany them to walk these first critical steps in their life-career journey.
