Give A Boy A MENtor in 2024

Four out of five boys lack a positive male role model, contributing to a rise in gender-based violence and a lack of self-love that hinders their ability to respect and value women. Without these role models, boys miss crucial lessons on perseverance, equality, and self-worth. The scarcity of men teaching boys to pursue their dreams, value diversity, and express vulnerability is linked to increasing suicide rates among men and teenagers. We urgently need men to step up, demonstrate true strength through vulnerability, and guide boys toward a healthier, more respectful adulthood.

​

But it doesn't have to be this way.  You can help provide Positive Male Modeling, Guidance, Self-Worth, Mental Health Support, and Emotional Development. A gift of just R300 a month is enough to bring a MENtor into a boy's life.

​

Join The Oak Forest, our monthly giving community and you’ll bring mentorship to boys every month.  A Forest of Oaks emphasizes the resilience of Oak Trees, a picture that shows we are fighting together against the negative impacts of fatherlessness.

MENtorship changes everything

Four out of five boys grow up without a positive male role model, leading to increased gender-based violence and a damaging lack of self-respect that affects their ability to value women. Without these vital mentors, boys miss out on essential lessons in perseverance, equality, and self-worth. This absence is linked to rising suicide rates among men and teenagers, highlighting the urgent need for men to show true strength through vulnerability and guide boys toward a healthier, more respectful adulthood.

​

But we can change this narrative. Your support can provide Positive Male Modeling, Guidance, Self-Worth, Mental Health Support, and Emotional Development. With just R300 a month, you can introduce a MENtor into a boy's life.
