you needed.

“Gedeon Baende, Mark Jones, and Dr. Troy Williams all had Black mentors who shaped who they became. They realized that was rare by design, not by accident.”

Mentor Me Black exists to make that access universal.

Who we’re looking for

You don’t need a perfect career. You need real experience and a willingness to share it.

  • Professionals in ANY field — finance, tech, healthcare, trades, arts, education
  • Recent grads who navigated challenges others face today
  • Entrepreneurs who built something from nothing
  • Anyone who had a mentor and wants to pay it forward
  • Anyone who didn't have a mentor and wants to be what they never had

All fields welcome: Tech, Finance, Healthcare, Law, Education, Skilled Trades, Arts, Entrepreneurship, and more.

What mentoring looks like

No corporate program structure. No mandatory minimums. Just real conversations that matter.
