Want to be a mentor?

Each and every one of our exceptional mentors started their journey here just like you.

A peek at our mentors

Chiburim’s mentoring community consists of a mosaic of Israeli society. Our volunteers consist of men, women, secular, religious, young, and old, and come from a wide array of professions, careers, and educations. They all have one common belief- that each and every person has the right to love and to be loved and to share his or her life in a meaningful relationship supported by an emotional connection, partnership, and mutual respect.

What does it take to volunteer with us

What does the volunteering include?

1

2

Receiving a maximum of three new members in your regional area to mentor simultaneously.

3

Monthly in-person meetings with all members you mentor (amounts vary based on track), as well as weekly phone calls.

4

An additional hour each week searching for dating opportunities for the members you mentor.

The training system for Chiburim mentors - the secret to our success!

Our professional mentoring method and our training system were developed by Rotem Sameah, and are presented by Liel Harel, social worker, personal coach, and Chiburim’s training director.

All mentors enjoy direct professional supervision for the duration of their volunteering tenure.

Every Chiburim mentor undergoes at least four training meetings in his or her volunteering tenure. They are as follows:

Basic Training

This training includes an orientation session of Chiburim as an organization, familiarization with the volunteering process at Chiburim, understanding of the mentoring process that each member undergoes, the values that guide us, simulations and practical tools for mentoring.

Being the Right Person

This advanced training includes learning, acquiring and incorporating tools for mentoring members towards readiness for a relationship, and deals mostly with a members process with him or herself.

Finding the Right Person

This advanced training includes learning, acquiring and incorporating tools for mentoring members in this era of abundant offers, how to succeed on dates, and how to progress from a first meeting to a meaningful relationship.

Developmental Horizons - Training as a Senior Mentor

In this training you will learn how you yourself can train new mentors into the organization and you will graduate with the status of Senior Chiburim Mentor. This training is for mentors who have been at Chiburim for at least a year and with a record of perseverance and commitment.

*In addition, from time to time we hold events for mentors consisting of external lecturers and experiences in order to enrich the world of content and a mentor’s toolbox in the hopes of nurturing useful and effective mentoring that leads to change.
