Become a Mentor

Be the Difference. One Young Life at a Time.

Every young person needs someone in their corner. Someone who’s been there. Someone who gets it. That someone could be you.

At Accendere, we believe mentorship unlocks potential like nothing else. Whether it’s sharing your story, offering guidance, or simply listening, you have something a young person needs.

If young people are mentored right, they can do great things.

Rev. Dr. Chris Oyakhilome

You don’t need all the answers. Just a heart to help.

Why Mentorship Matters

  • 85% of young people say having a mentor improves their self-confidence and decision-making.
  • Help shape careers, choices, and futures.
  • Create lasting impact without a huge time commitment

Who Can Be a Mentor?

Professionals, creatives, entrepreneurs, leaders, anyone with experience and a desire to give back. Whether it’s 30 minutes a month or more regular check-ins, you can make a lasting difference.

What People Are Saying

My experience at Accendere cannot be summed up into any other word than unique. I've never been a part of anything like this and I'm so thankful for the opportunity to have been a participant of the program. This program has taught me so many things that school has not, like financial independence, CV writing and interview prep, and networking to find beneficial connections. I've been brought out of my shell in more ways than one, making amazing friends who are determined and set on what they want to do, being appointed as a leader and improving my public speaking, effective communication skills and analytical skills. I would certainly recommend that young people take part in this program because it is guaranteed that you will leave, upgraded.

I cannot express how grateful I am to have been able to attend. The amount of skills and advice given here was invaluable and I can confidently say a passion to reach higher was ignited within. We heard from powerful and influential individuals, sharing key skills learnt in their industry and the actions they took to get where they are today. People aged 16-23 like me, were given the chance to not only understand but apply their potential in the outside world. When the program comes around for its new season, it is definitely an event that cannot be missed. From today onwards, I will continue to honour my brand promise in all that I set out to do.

It was really a very interactive session that left me feeling very fulfilled knowing that once again I’m staying true to the promise of impacting my world with the influence of my personality. A huge shout out to the team that pulled this program together and invited me along - rooting for you all!
