MENTOR / The National Mentoring Partnership is an advocate and resource for mentoring in the United States. It is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, with headquarters in Alexandria, Virginia.
Mentoring is a tool for helping children and youth succeed in life. Although nearly 17.6-million young Americans need or want a mentor,[citation needed] only about three million are in formal, high-quality mentoring relationships. That means nearly 15-million young people are still in need today.
MENTOR’s mission is to expand the power of mentoring to the millions of young Americans who want or need adult role models.
MENTOR shares information, national standards, and best practices so that the mentoring community can work effectively and efficiently. It works with the organizations that directly match and oversee the mentor-mentee pairs, and helps individuals mentoring opportunity in their communities.
Throughout the month of January - National Mentoring Month - and year-round, the Harvard Mentoring Project, MENTOR/National Mentoring Partnership, and the Corporation for National and Community Service are spearheading the effort to raise awareness of ways that individuals can lend their support to this important cause. People interested in becoming mentors are asked to go to MENTOR official website, where they can find organizations offering mentoring opportunities in their local community. Harvard's WhoMentoredYou project features videos of Quincy Jones, Clint Eastwood, Oprah Winfrey, Colin Powell, and other well-known individuals talking about their mentors.

Plot: Earth's Moon is ripped from orbit by a massive nuclear explosion and cast adrift in deep space. It is displaced further into the unknown by two space warps and into range of the volcanic planet Psychon, where the crew of Moonbase Alpha hope to obtain a mineral needed for their survival. But they are lured into a trap by Mentor of Psychon, who wants to drain their souls into a machine for energy needed to transform Psychon back to the paradise it once was. Mentor's daughter, Maya, who has the ability of personal molecular transformation, realizes how fanatical her father has become and helps the Alphans to stop her father. But in the struggle, Mentor's machine's power is released, triggering a series of explosions that cause cataclysm on Psychon and fevered distress in grief-stricken Maya. In the second part Koenig and Tony explore an alien ship while the moon passes through a space warp, leaving the astronauts stranded. Meanwhile, Maya is undergoing some strange disease that causes her to transform into a variety of berserker-like forms, including her deceased father Mentor.
