Friends Unlimited Mentoring Programme


What is Friends Unlimited Mentoring Programme?

¡@

    

¡@

        A cooperative program organized by Lingnan University and Friends Unlimited, which has established in January 2002. Around 35 - 40 mentees are matched to the volunteers of Friends Unlimited each year. The university has the privilege of receiving assistance from Friends Unlimited, a non profit organization, whose members have volunteered to provide mentoring guidance to Lingnan students.
      The programme provides a network, which annually match a group of Lingnan students to mentors who are volunteers of Friends Unlimited for a period of 6 months from January to June. During the period, the pairs of mentor and mentee will establish their own relationship, make contacts, and interact with one another. Students will take the opportunity to gain life and career experience and wisdom from their mentors. Students who wish to join this mentoring programme should watch out for Student Services Centre's in the first semester of each academic year.
