Annual Agenda
-College Mentors for Kids was established as official service club at the University of Dayton in Fall 2011; this club promotes higher education through a mentoring program that takes place weekly on UD's campus.
- Weekly activities are revolved around the benefits of either higher education, community service and culture. It is the belief of College Mentors for Kids that through the children’s exposure to these topics, they will become interested in higher education and bettering their community.
- Brittany Fritsch's interest in the national College Mentors for Kids program inspired her to create a club on UD's campus. UD's club is one of the few in Ohio.
- Currently the club mentors 25 boys from Dayton Boy's Prep School but hopes to expand this number in the future to include more schools and grade levels.
- The club bases weekly activities and annual fundraisers through guidance of the national chapter and the faculty advisor.
- The club relies solely on donations and funding from the SGA and campus ministry.
