The PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation will hold its first Winter Mentorship Luncheon in Manhattan on December 19. The event will bring students and early-career professionals together with experienced members of the Greek-American community.
The foundation is organizing the luncheon in partnership with the Hellenic Medical Society of New York. The event will give participants a chance to ask mentors about career choices and hear how they navigated the early stages of their working lives.
For students weighing what comes after graduation, a conversation with someone already working in a field they’re considering can help clarify their options. Early-career professionals can use the meeting to make contacts outside their immediate workplaces and discuss questions that arise in their first years on the job.
The luncheon adds an in-person mentoring event to the foundation’s work with students. It also gives established Greek-American professionals in New York a chance to share what they learned along the way with people at the start of their careers.
