Good mentorship is invaluable. It changes lives. It creates leaders. It builds confidence in a young person that will be vital for their success.
The Michael & Robin Lally Forward Foundation is proud to partner with passionate and successful men and women who are committed to elevating the field of engineering by lending their expertise to the next generation of engineers and creating pathways for diversity.
To show gratitude for these talented mentors‘ time and dedication and to honor their devotion to forging opportunities for underrepresented engineering students, the foundation has created a “thank you” in the form of a charitable grant proudly named the Pay It Forward Mentorship Grant.
At the close of every school year, each mentor is awarded a $2,500 grant from The Forward Foundation. The mentor is given the opportunity to direct the grant in his or her name to a 501(c)3 public charity or educational institution of their choosing.
We could never pay back our mentors for their time and talent. Instead, we hope to pay it forward.
