About Mentor A Promise

Mentor A Promise (MAP) is a youth-centered nonprofit dedicated to supporting students ages 5–18 experiencing housing instability in New York City. Through mentorship, social-emotional learning, academic enrichment, and creative expression, we create safe, consistent, and empowering spaces for young people to grow, thrive, and succeed. We believe every child deserves a promise kept — and we work every day to make that promise real.

MAP’s fashion initiative, Thread & Promise, uses design and apparel to raise awareness and generate support for our programs. Every piece carries a story of mentorship, resilience, and hope.

  • Knowledge of SEO, Google Analytics, and e-commerce marketing strategies
  • Familiarity with email marketing and CRM tools
  • Basic design skills for product imagery and graphics (Canva, Photoshop, or similar)


What You’ll Gain

  • Hands-on experience managing an e-commerce platform for a purpose-driven brand
  • Opportunities to combine technical skills with creative storytelling
  • Collaboration with a mission-driven, passionate team
  • A portfolio project showcasing e-commerce management with social impact
