Councilman Claude Mattox with student Vidal Robles

Designed to foster a mentoring relationship, Let's Do Lunch gives students an opportunity to interact with a business professional twice per month. The adult mentors discuss their careers and emphasize the value of education. Their role can also serve as reinforcement for effective study skills and provide young people with a sense of direction to make the proper choices in life. Research says that mentors make a difference! Let's Do Lunch is an initiative made possible through the collaborative work of the College of Education at Northern Arizona University, the Alhambra Elementary School District, the city of Phoenix, the Greater Phoenix Chamber of Commerce and the United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.

Volunteer Responsibilities

• Attend two to four hours of orientation training at Cordova Middle School (CMS).
• Meet with assigned students for lunch at CMS at least two times per month through the end of the school year.
