Volunteer Profile: Lauren Fragoza

Lauren works as a Product Manager and volunteers as a Cambridge Mentor

I've been volunteering with Enroot for almost two years, and I've been mentoring the same student in the Leadership program throughout that time. I've really enjoyed getting to know my mentee, and we've done a lot of activities together around Boston. I love hearing about what my mentee does every week and answering her questions. It's really rewarding to see all the things she's been able to accomplish or get to experience through Enroot and through her own hard work and persistence. It's great to feel like I had a part in that, too. 
Being involved with Enroot has been a great experience all around, I feel like I've grown as a person and as a leader, and I've been able to see the impact of my volunteer efforts on my community. 
 

Volunteer Profile: Maddy Frumkin

Maddy works as a Research Coordinator and volunteers as a Cambridge tutor

Meeting with my student is one of my favorite parts of the week! As her tutor, I have had the opportunity to help her with English (she does all the hard work), and we have even started planning for college and her future career. I love that we are able to laugh and have a good time together while still making huge improvements! 

Volunteer Profile: Suvd Tsolmon

Suvd Tsolmon is a a solutions consultant or Oracle, former Cambridge mentor, and Volunteer Committee Member

I started volunteering as a mentor from September 2015, and then I joined the Volunteer Committee summer 2016. I enjoyed my year of mentorship experience with Enroot so much, that I decided to join the Volunteer Committee to stay involved with the organization, even though I could not mentor this year. I mentored Hattan, a very smart and sweet HS freshman girl who had just moved to the U.S. when I first met her. Being part of Hattan’s life during this very important transition in her life was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had.

Enroot is an amazing organization that cares so much about their students and volunteers. They always make sure that both students and volunteers are enjoying their experiencing through volunteer trainings, social events, and fun mentor and mentee bonding activities.
