Remembering Luke Boisi

During the Awards, we honor the vibrant life of Luke Boisi, who tragically passed away at the age of 21. Luke was the son of Geoff Boisi, founder of MENTOR: The National Mentoring Partnership, and the brother of Zach Boisi, former Director of MENTOR New York.

Luke was personally impacted by mentorship and spent his last years serving others with AmeriCorps. To honor his life and legacy, we proudly present the Luke Boisi MENTOR of the Year Award to a mentor who, like Luke, embodies the spirit of carrying the torch forward.
