What is Impact Mentoring?

Impact Mentoring is a 6-month mentorship program sponsored by RBC, powered by Ten Thousand Coffees (10KC), to support the career development of BIPOC-identifying youth from across Canada.

How does it work? 

  • Mentorship
    • Mentees will be matched with a professional Mentor for a small group mentorship experience
    • Matches are expected to meet monthly for 30-45 minutes over the course of 6 months from October - April with a break in December.
    • The program is guided by a structured curriculum, including resources and discussion questions and automated reminders

  • Virtual Events
    • In addition, participants will have access to interactive, roundtable sessions called Office Hours led by subject matter experts, senior leaders or recruiters that support the small group mentorship content

  • Networking
    • Following the mentorship program, participants will graduate into the Impact Mentoring Alumni Community and have access to ongoing networking opportunities


Please note: the Impact Mentoring program and Participant Information Session are available in English only
