JUMP Match Recognition Banquet

It was an amazing night for the guests at the JUMP Match Recognition Banquet!  Over 45 mentors and mentees attended the JUMP Banquet last Saturday evening to be honored for being part of the program.  The volunteer mentors and the children they are mentoring were treated to an evening just for them.  Dinner was served, Chad Collyer a magician and mentalist from Indianapolis performed and certificates and gifts were given to all the JUMP members!

“This is a special night for the volunteers and children in the JUMP program,” stated Jill Hampton, JUMP Program manager.  “If not for these people, the JUMP Program would not be the successful program that it is today.  The volunteers give of their time and help provide kindness and support for the youth of our community.  That is a big deal! The kids give back as well.  I can’t tell you how much spending time with a child and seeing things through their eyes have shaped the lives of the volunteers, as well”

Becoming a mentor in the JUMP program really just requires an adult or couple that want to make a difference in the life of a child.  To become a volunteer in the program, please contact Jill Hampton at 362-0694 ext. 103 or email [email protected].

The JUMP Program is part of the Montgomery County Youth Service Bureau.  The Youth Service Burea is a United Fund Partner Agency!
