Our Mission
The Merrymeeting Bay Mentoring Coalition is a partnership of local mentoring and youth service organizations as well as local businesses to educate, recruit, train, and evaluate local mentors. The goal of the partnership is to create a stronger connection between the adults, children, and youth in our communities. We believe that every child has the potential to grow into a successful, caring adult — though not all children have access to the support needed to do so. By providing quality mentoring services in the Merrymeeting Bay area, the Coalition hopes to help our young people succeed in life and become positive contributors to our communities. The Partnership was initiated by Riverview Foundation in Collaboration with the Communities for Children and Youth VISTA Project.
