In 2005, iMentor was selected to become a member of The Catalog for Giving. For the last twelve years, The Catalog has highlighted the impact of its member agencies by hosting an annual event to honor the young people that they serve. Mentee Keshia accepted the 2007 Urban Hero Award on behalf of iMentor, along with 9 other extraordinary young people who, through tenacity, hard work, and courage, have overcome difficult life challenges to become role models for others in their communities. In accepting the award, Keshia gave a speech to more than 300 attendees, sharing her moving story, the impact her mentor Deborah (and iMentor) has had on her future academic and career goals.
