This group is a combination of current Arizona Quest For Kids Mentors, Site-Coordinators, their friends and potential mentors.

Do you want to positively impact a child’s life?

Be a mentor!

Arizona Quest For Kids (AQFK) is a mentoring and enrichment program for high potential students from low income families that provides support and guidance for college enrollment and graduation. Students begin with AQFK in the fifth grade and continue through college graduation. AQFK addresses the hopes and dreams of youth who may otherwise not be able to attend college by providing them with mentoring services, enrichment opportunities, family support services, and financial support for college.

Positively influence the life of a child and become a mentor for Arizona Quest For Kids. In only one hour a week you can help a student make positive choices about their education, personal relationships, and their role in the community. Your one year commitment includes orientation, training and meeting with a student one-on-one for one hour per week. Fingerprinting and background checks are completed at no cost to the volunteer. Your commitment combined with AQFK programs ensures that our youth are academically, personally and emotionally prepared to not only graduate from high school but to excel in post-secondary education and beyond.
