Motown Mercy Mentorship Program
Weekly summer mentorship classes helping students build confidence, leadership, career awareness, and real-world life skills.
About the Program
The Motown Mercy Mentorship Program is a summer weekly class program created in partnership with Pontiac School District in Oakland County. Through a structured curriculum, the program helps students build confidence, leadership skills, career awareness, and real-world life skills.
Each summer, Motown Mercy mentors work with students through interactive lessons, group activities, discussions, and projects that encourage them to think about who they are, who they want to become, and how they can make a positive impact in their community.
What Students Learn
Our curriculum is designed to develop the whole student — building character, skills, and confidence for life beyond the classroom.
Confidence & Self-Expression
Students practice sharing their thoughts, speaking about themselves, and building confidence in who they are.
Leadership & Teamwork
Students learn how to work with others, lead by example, and contribute positively to a group.
Career Exploration
Students explore future career paths and begin thinking about their goals, interests, and strengths.
Public Speaking
Students build communication skills through short presentations, group sharing, and guided activities.
Financial Literacy Basics
Students are introduced to basic money concepts, smart decision-making, and future planning.
Entrepreneurship & Problem-Solving

Community Service
Students learn the importance of giving back and becoming positive changemakers in their community.
A Structured Summer Curriculum
Our mentorship program is built around a weekly curriculum that gives students a clear path for growth throughout the summer. Each session includes a lesson, discussion, activity, and reflection component so students are not just listening — they are actively participating.

Many students have big dreams but need encouragement, structure, and positive role models to help them see what is possible.
