Meet our match, Delia and Nicole! • Nicole is a business owner who applied to the Strike a Match program hoping to find a mentor who could help her scale her business. Delia was just the woman for the job. She is smart, driven, and has undertaken more than one entrepreneurial adventure. She knows what it takes to create a viable business model, but also knows how to cultivate passion in the people around her. We had a feeling they would be a great match, and it turns out we were right! • Read all about what they’ve accomplished together on the blog!

It’s #MentorMonday - the perfect day for you to meet our match, Cayla and Nisha! Cayla wrote to us over the summer looking for a mentor who could help her form more meaningful connections in the community. She was interested in being paired with someone familiar with fundraising and development in a mission-minded organization. We knew right away that we had just the person for the job. Enter Nisha. As the Fund Development Officer for @familyresourcesqc Nisha knows how to be successful in this community in the exact areas where Cayla was looking for some guidance. We recently caught up with Nisha and she had the best story to tell us about how she and Cayla have been fueling career and community engagement. Check it out on the blog today!

Meet our match, Heavin and Rhonda! Heavin wrote to us a few months ago looking for a mentor who could help her navigate a new sales position.

Rhonda left pharmaceutical sales to start her own business - @livwellseniors - and has been carving out her own path to success ever since. Heavin wrote to us last week after their first meeting together. Check out what she had to say on the blog today! Link in bio 👆 ... #tagtheqc #keepfueling #womenpoweringwomen #mentorsmatter
