The Whale Foundation recognizes that guides are creative, strong and independent. At the same time, they are humble enough to know when they could use a bit of know-how from a seasoned vet. For this, our Mentorship Program was created.
Mentors: Do you remember the first time you rigged a boat? Or scouted Lava? Or that first breakfast you had to make twenty-five omelettes to order? None of these are easy to figure out without a little experience on hand. The same holds true for life beyond the river. If you are someone who has already been through it, and you are wiling to pass on your lessons and wisdom, please sign up to be a mentor.
Mentees: If you're thinking about plotting a new course like going back to school, starting a business or you're simply going through something that feels unique to our career or lifestyle, we've assembled a group of active and former guides who can share their experience with you. Please complete the form to be connected with a mentor.
Next action: Both Mentors and Mentees alike, complete the form and start today!
**This is program is in its infancy. This page and progam will continue to grow and improve as we have mentors and mentees participate.
