GEM's 3rd Annual Casino Night

This years GEMs Casino Night Fundraiser will take place on October 12th, 2019 and will be held at the Westfield Southcenter Mall 2800 Southcenter Mall, Seattle, WA 98188.
The mission of GEM is to inform, interact, and inspire youth and young adults. Through holistic mentoring every youth and young adult is empowered to be principled, responsible, critical thinkers who affect positive change in their community.
Since our inception five years ago in the summer of 2014 Glover Empower Mentoring has engaged over 300+ youth and 25+ young adults in formal mentoring relationships, for a total of over 6,500 hours of mentoring time. For nearly three years, we have successfully grown our youth engagement and volunteer commitmenttaking on an average of one new mentee per month and one new mentor per quarter.
To address the need in our community, GEM is committed to mentoring and supporting individuals as they pursue goals throughout their lifetime. Our mentoring programs focus on building essential skills needed to become productive, contributing citizens. GEM provides peer-group and one-on-one mentoring through three elements: Community Based Mentoring, After School Mentoring, & One-on-One Mentoring.
As you know these supports come with a cost. In a school calendar year, the cost per youth to go through GEM services three times a week is about $250. As we see 100 youth through our services per year, we have set our goal at $25,000 to provide our full services to our future leaders in the community.
