Five girls from St. Joseph Center’s Sisters For Success girls mentoring program have finished high school and been accepted to college — one to Cal Poly Pomona, and four to Santa Monica Community College.

Sisters for Success pairs female adult role models with girls ages 13 to 18 with the goal of helping them build their self-esteem, finish high school and pursue higher education. This year, every senior in the program applied and was accepted into college. Some of the mentors have worked with their protégés for five years, becoming an integral part of their lives and watching them grow into young adulthood. Each girl is the first in her family to go to college. To find out how you can become a mentor, visit www.stjosephctr.org/volunteers.html or call (310) 396-6468, ext. 326\.
