Cindy Fritz
Great Life Mentoring
We are proud to induct Cindy Fritz into the Susan Daniels Disability Mentoring Hall of Fame.
Cindy Fritz grew up with a mom who had severe mental health issues so she was drawn to Great Life Mentoring (GLM). She is GLM’s Program Manager since 2005, trains and supports volunteers to be successful in their mentoring experiences, and has been a GLM mentor herself since 2007. She believes mentoring is vital for kids affected by mental health conditions. A caring connection with a healthy adult promotes confidence that they are worthy of love and belonging. Cindy holds a Masters in Theology and BS in Administrative Management.
Cindy’s nominator shares, “She became the best mentor she could be. Cindy never asked a volunteer to do something she herself wasn’t doing. That’s a Great Life Mentoring trademark at all levels of the organization: We model to the mentors what we want them to model to the children.”
