Description

We're excited to announce a new, inaugural event in Buffalo – The Everything Buffalo Mentor Race, presented by Say Yes Buffalo and the MolinaCares Accord.

The Everything Buffalo Mentor Race will be held, in-person, on Saturday, August 14 with the goal of promoting the importance and life-long impact of mentoring.

Here are some details:

  • Teams – consisting of one mentor and one youth mentee (who is between the ages of 12 and 21) – will compete and work together to solve challenges along a course in the downtown Buffalo corridor.
  • Teams will be competing against up to 50 other mentor teams from across Western New York.
  • And, yes, there are prizes!

Not only is the race about bringing together teams of youths and their mentors for a fun, memorable activity, but all proceeds raised will go to the Say Yes Buffalo Scholarships, supporting Buffalo public and charter school students.
