(Kevin Bentley speaking to boys at St. Helena Elementary)
The mission of Responsible ARTistry Campaign is "enhancing & saving lives" and this was a day when those three words resonated in the air. We invited mentor "Kevin Bentley" from the Harambee House, Inc. of Savannah, GA to speak to some of our 4th & 5th graders at St. Helena Elementary School and the "BreakThrough" was an awesome sight to see and hear.
Being a mentor is an extremely important role and it is not to be taken lightly. We believe a certain mindset is required and needed to really make an impact which Mr. Bentley beautifully embodies. He has a heart that truly wants to help and he understands the plight of these young men as he has lived it. Mr. Bentley knows the right questions to ask, he knows the right words to speak into their hearts and minds. There were tears shed by some of these boys yesterday and revelations were revealed. Mr. Bentley came from Savannah on one day's notice and made it a point to let the boys know that he would be back to check on them and you could see on their faces that it mattered to them.
On this day a Mentor really made a Difference.
