Why “Paint the Town Green”? 💚

Green is the color of growth, possibility, and hope—everything mentoring creates.

Throughout January, we’re “painting the town green” to spread awareness about the need for mentors across Idaho. When you see green stickers, signs, or lights around town, they’re all part of a community-wide effort to shine a bright light on mentoring and how it transforms the future.

In Idaho, hundreds of youth are waiting for a mentor. When a young person has someone who shows up for them, listens, encourages, and believes in them, it ripples into families, neighborhoods, and the future of our state.

Mentoring doesn’t require perfection. Just presence.
