In Toastmasters, friends help friends succeed. What better way to help your club by promoting the mentoring program.

A mentor program can be beneficial to your club, providing guidance to new or less experienced members. As a mentor, you can share your knowledge, skills and experience, and revel in the satisfaction of having helped someone improve. Your words of encouragement will send new members soaring, and feelings of camaderie in your club will grow.
