YPIE is deeply grateful to the large community of dedicated and caring volunteers who make a positive impact on YPIE students during high school and beyond.
On #ThankYourMentor Day, we asked students to share their thoughts on how YPIE mentors make a difference in their lives. We were very touched to receive responses from many students, sharing heartfelt words about their YPIE coaches.
