Mentoring

Hercules has partnered with Warner Elementary School to mentor students for many years. In 2006, Hercules renovated the mentoring room, supplying computers, desks, chairs and library books. The children wrote thank you letters to our CEO. Some letters were short but sweet…”I love Hercules!”

Some were more detailed… “We want to thank you so badly for doing this for us, because fixing up the mentoring room was so special. My mentor and I like to play games and learn our vowels together. We really want to say thank you, thank you, thank you. ! God bless you.”

Others saw the advantage of the new furniture from an ergonomic point of view… “Thank you for the chairs and tables and workspaces. If you never did this our backs could have been hurting on those little chairs.”

One little girl saw the room in a different light altogether… “Thank you for the furniture…the chairs are pretty and the room is pretty. I like it. It is so nice I just want to sleep in here.”

In 2007, Hercules is partnering with the East Side Charter School in Wilmington to help with a similar project.
