Mission

Save Our Youth is a youth development organization providing at-risk youth with educational, emotional, and spiritual skills for success through long-term mentoring relationships

About

In 2018, 330 youth received one-to-one mentoring through Save Our Youth. The average length of mentee/mentor matches was 45 months, which surpasses the national average of 16 months. The longevity of our mentor/mentee matches enhances the long-term benefits of mentoring as most mentees begin welcoming a new perspective and gain greater levels of insight 9-12 months after being matched with a mentor. 95% of our participants graduated from high school on time, as compared to Denver Public School's on-time graduation rate of only 70%.
