Success Through Mentoring

STM (Success Through Mentoring Inc.) is a new nonprofit mentoring program in Spencer County. We are recruiting adult volunteer mentors to work with our at-risk youth in the county. STM works with youth ages 8 to 18 who need that extra boost to get them on the right track for success. 

STM connects at-risk youth (mentees) with well-trained community volunteers
(mentors) here in Spencer County who offer support and encourage youth to become happy, healthy, successful members of society. The Mentor-Mentee match will connect for at least one to two hours per week for a minimum of one year.  If you would like to learn more about becoming a mentor please email executive director, Steve Buse, at  or call 812-489-0101.
