"The most rewarding thing is the smile and gratitude from my mentees. Just go and share your knowledge."

Volunteer Mentor

Mentors for Ukraine connects you with displaced Ukrainian professionals who need career guidance. Ukrainians browse mentor profiles on the platform and book sessions directly with people who have relevant experience.

You set your own availability and accept the requests that work for you. Sessions happen over integrated video calls. Some mentors meet the same person for months. Others prefer one-off conversations. You decide what fits your schedule.

"There is no minimum commitment. No mandatory training. You control your calendar, and you choose how much time to give."

Five steps to your first session

Sign up with your work email

Register using your corporate email address. This verifies your professional identity. We review applications within 24 hours.

01

Build your mentor profile

Add your expertise, background, and LinkedIn profile. Write a short bio so Ukrainians understand what you can help with. Set your available time slots.

02

Ukrainians book sessions with you

Mentees browse profiles by skill, industry, or language. When someone finds you, they send a booking request with a message explaining what they need.

03

Accept and meet

Review the request. If it matches your expertise, accept it. Join the video call at the scheduled time. The platform handles timezones automatically.

04

Continue or complete

After a session, mentees can rebook with you if they want to continue. Some relationships last months. Others are single conversations. Both are valuable.

05

If this feels right, you can start in a few minutes.

Become a mentor

Practical support for career rebuilding

You don't need to be a certified coach. You just need to share what you know.

CV and LinkedIn reviews

Help Ukrainians present their experience for international job markets. Show them what recruiters actually look for.

Interview practice

Run mock interviews. Give honest feedback on their answers, body language, and presentation. Help them prepare for the real thing.

Job search guidance

Explain how applications, networking, and job boards work in your market. Share what you wish someone had told you.

Industry insight

Describe how your sector operates. What roles exist. What employers expect. What a realistic career path looks like.

Career transitions

Guide professionals who are pivoting into new fields. Help them see how their existing skills transfer.

Workplace culture

Explain unwritten rules. Communication norms. What 'professional' means in your context. The things nobody teaches but everyone assumes you know.

CSR-ready volunteer hour reports

Every session you complete is logged on the platform. We generate volunteer hour summaries and documentation to support your CSR reporting.

If your company uses Benevity, YourCause, CyberGrants, or Alaya, we can provide reports formatted for these platforms. Your company gets credit for your contribution. You get recognition for your time.

You mentor. We provide the documentation.

Your company may double your impact

Many employers offer "Dollars for Doers" or volunteer reward programmes, where companies donate to charities based on employee volunteer hours.

If your company participates, your mentoring time with Mentors for Ukraine may be eligible for matching donations or volunteer rewards.

We can provide documentation and summaries to support your internal submission or verification process.
