Guiding Lights: A New Mentorship Series from do-over.Me

You can be a Guiding Light

Ignite someone's life. Illuminate someone's path. Show someone their potential

Guiding Lights is an internal program of do-over.me, which is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit located in Geneva, who provides its services on a sliding scale as a career/community center for people that are unemployed, underemployed, or unhappily employed.

Mission Statement:

The Guiding Lights program is an internal support network for our members which partners them with volunteers who act as “a friend, mentor, and advocate.” This unique relationship is designed to help illuminate each member’s innate potential for positive change and provide practical tools that they can develop to use on their career/life journey.

Who is a "Guiding Light" and Why is it important?

A Guiding Light is a "Friend," a personal companion and a point of contact who will support our members on their do-over transformation. As a trusted advisor, a Guiding Light will act as a "Mentor" helping guide our members through the do-over process. Most importantly, a Guiding Light will "advocate" by encouraging and representing the best interests of our members in our community.
Guiding Lights represent the core values and concepts of do-over.me by meeting our members where they are. By adopting a "growth mindset," they can pass on their experiences to our members allowing them to learn, grow, and achieve success in today's fast-paced job market. By offering our members "hope" Guiding Lights, light the way for members to learn to believe in themselves and move forward with confidence and "GRIT" guts, resilience, initiative, and tenacity.
