With the addition of VOSS, there are now 670 volunteers working with students through Study Connection.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is through the commitment of businesses like VOSS that we are able to make a difference in students&#8217; lives every day,&#8221; said Sharon Callender, coordinator of FWCS Community Programs, which oversees Study Connection. &#8220;We know that students who have a mentor have better school attendance and a better attitude about going to school and are more likely to go on to higher education.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Study Connection began in 1989, founded by Don Wolf, retired CEO and president emeritus of Do it Best Corp. In the last two decades an estimated 10,000 students have gone through the program. Volunteers are matched one-to-one with FWCS students who need academic assistance. Students and volunteers meet weekly after school for one hour during the school year with 79 percent of the students transported to and from local businesses for their tutoring sessions. This not only gives students a chance to receive extra homework help but also to meet a mentor in the community and learn about local career opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The benefit for students is obvious, but there is also a great benefit for businesses that allow and encourage their employees to volunteer,&#8221; Callender said. &#8220;National studies have found that employees who mentor return to work happier, feel more productive, are more loyal and have increased pride in their company.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As a part of the National Mentoring Month celebration, Study Connection officially unveiled its new logo, featuring the FWCS logo colors.<\/p>\n<p>Businesses, organizations or individuals interested in becoming a part of Study Connection can call 260.467.8810.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Fort Wayne Community Schools<\/strong><br \/>\nWith nearly 31,000 students, Fort Wayne Community Schools is one of the largest school districts in Indiana.
