6. History
Integrity Mentors (iM) is a faith-based 501(c)3 non-profit mentoring program that
was officially founded in 2006. The vision began with a sincere passion for
mentoring and developing young men in low- and moderate-income households,
particularly those who are being raised by a single parent.
Due to continued growth and support, the Board decided to add a girls mentoring
component in March 2016. The vision for this program is similar to the boys
mentoring, focusing on the single-parent household.
