Partner testimonial

Vintage letter

Claylab has been mentoring my grade 10 students for the last 7-8 months toward career orientation and personal well-being. The mentorship system really enabled student growth to a great extent. Students always shared how their mentors motivated and helped them to be on track for meeting their individual goals.

Each volunteer was able to cater to each student's requirements with respect to the resources required. One of my students who is an active football player asked her mentor to come watch her match. Her mentor was more than happy to be there for all 3 of her matches. The mentee felt so supported and that particular day she became the player of the match.

As a School PoC, I also got to interact with a few volunteers and Claylab PoCs. They were very helpful when I needed any student data for tracking the progress. I am thankful to the Claylab team for supporting my students and I am looking forward to the support for next two years.
