Testimonials


All mentees keep a journal about their experience in the program. Read stories from two participants.

High School Mentorship
Melanie and Candy
When Candy Lee, a grade 12 student, met Melanie Greenaway, industrial designer, she couldn’t have been more excited. Her YWCA mentor is one of the creative masterminds behind Storyeum – a “magical history tour” – Vancouver’s latest attraction.

 

 

High School Mentorship Melissa and Shayleen
Shayleen was in grade 12 at Riverside Secondary when she signed up for the YWCA Mentorship Program offered through the Career Centre at her school. Becoming a police officer has been a career dream for Shayleen, so she was thrilled when she found out that she was matched up with Melissa, a Police Officer with the Vancouver City Police.
