Real Mentorship. Real Presence. Real Impact.

From schools and shelters to locker rooms and living rooms — our programs meet people where they are and then Stay In The Room.

  • Youth Mentorship

    Our mentoring program is built on consistency, presence, and purpose. Michael Thurmond currently mentors weekly in schools and Boys & Girls Clubs across Georgia — connecting with students, athletes, and young leaders through real relationships and truth spoken in love.

    We also offer a structured K–5th grade character curriculum, with plans to expand into more grade levels and more locations in the future.

    This program is designed to scale. Our long-term vision includes trained volunteer mentors, paid program staff, and regional directors — all working together to meet students where they are and stay in the room.

  • Community Outreach

    We don’t just talk about impact — we show up for it.

    From feeding hundreds of kids at the RYDC, to back-to-school drives, to Christmas outreach and one-on-one support for youth in crisis, we meet practical needs with compassion and consistency.

    Community outreach includes:

    Meals for youth in shelters and detention centers

    Backpacks, shoes, and clothing drives

    Holiday events and special celebrations

    Support for young adults facing hard life transitions

    Showing up — even when no one else does

  • Men’s Coaching – The Table

    The Table is an 8-week coaching experience for men who are ready to grow. It’s designed for those who feel spiritually disconnected, emotionally stuck, or simply unsure where to turn next.

    This hybrid-format group includes:

    Weekly Zoom sessions and one in-person gathering per month

    Faith-based devotionals and accountability

    Accountability, prayer, and authentic conversation

    Tools for men to lead better in their homes, jobs, and relationships

    The Table can be launched anywhere. It’s scalable, repeatable, and built to multiply.

Team Thurmond Mentoring is not just a local effort. It's a model for something bigger — a network of programs, coaches, and communities committed to staying in the room.

Our vision includes:

  • Multiple program sites across the country

  • Salaried mentor-leaders and full-time staff

  • Regional coaching groups for men

  • Speaking engagements and leadership training

  • A future TTM community center with fields, facilities, and space to grow

We’re building something that lasts — and we’re just getting started.

This Is Just the Beginning
