Cobalt Mentorship

Would you like to be a mentor?
Time and time again, we have stood witness to the persecution of mutants by those who fail to understand that we are no different than them and are not to be blamed for the way we were born. Powers do not make us inherently evil or bad, nor do they mean that we deserve to be mistreated. Likewise, there comes a time when we should do something for our community and for those who stand up for us.
After close communication with several local groups, I have found a handful of organizations that will gladly support mutants. I look for role models and exemplary fellows among our school population who wish to help a child in need or provide a laugh for a lonely senior citizen on a dreary day.
Pack 928 of the Boy Scouts and the local Salem Girlscouts welcome any mutants who wish to join whether they were former scouts themselves as children or merely interested in giving a helping hand.
Paradise Valley Nursing Home also welcomes any mutants who care to visit the elderly for sit and reads. Many of these people have lost all of their loved ones and have no family left to visit with them. An hour of your time might mean the world to them.
The Pediatric Unit of Salem Hospital is home to many children who will not be leaving their hospital beds for a long time, if at all. If you have enough heart to bring a smile to a child's face, I have spoken with the hospital director and many parents have signed written affidavits allowing visitors that will play videogames, fingerpaint, or provide good and wholesome entertainment.
Upon leaving your signed application, a background check will be run for criminal history then against school files for history of conduct on campus grounds. Adult Residents are also encouraged to take part in our mentorship program.
