About the Crowned Mentoring Program
Crowned International is looking for passionate, positive, and purpose-driven adults who want to make a meaningful difference in the lives of teens.
The Crowned for Purpose Teen Mentorship Program is a six-month virtual group mentoring experience for teens ages 12–17. Through twice-monthly Google Meet sessions, our mentors help young people develop confidence, strengthen their faith, explore their future, and gain practical skills for life.
We believe that sometimes one encouraging conversation, one positive example, or one person willing to listen can make a lasting difference.
