In January, RUSC Kinship recognized National Mentoring Month by hosting our annual bowling and pizza party to honor our mentors and mentees.

The event was a delightful gathering filled with delicious food, enjoyable activities, and a sense of camaraderie. We celebrated the initiation of new matches and the growth of existing ones, acknowledging the dedication of all participants in strengthening our community through the values upheld by RUSC Kinship.
