December "Mentor of the Month"

This Month's Outstanding Mentor is Jerry Thede!
Jerry mentors a 9th grader at San Marcos High School. They have been together for about one year. Throughout the past year, Jerry and his mentee have formed a close bond, and Jerry has encouraged his mentee to exhibit good manners, to try his best in school, and to believe in himself. Jerry has had quite the impact as evidenced by his mentee's grin everytime he is asked to talk about Jerry. Jerry will be receiving lunch for two at In-N-Out. Congratulations, Jerry! Keep up the good work!

September "Mentor of the Month"


This Month's Outstanding Mentor is Jack Tiethof!
Jack mentors an 8th grader at Goleta Valley Junior High. Jack and his mentee will celebrate two fabulous years of mentoring on September 19th. Prior to being matched with his current mentee, Jack worked with another student in our program. We would like to honor Jack for his quiet service and dedication to his mentee and to the Fighting Back Mentor Program. He is someone who often flies under the radar with his contributions, but we just had to put him in the spotlight! :-) Jack will be receiving lunch for two at In-N-Out. Great job, Jack! Keep up the good work!
