Sponsorship

Sponsor Digital Mentor

Help Put Meaningful Mentoring Within Reach.

Digital Mentor invites businesses, charitable organizations, foundations, and individual donors to help make thoughtful, age-appropriate mentoring guidance accessible to more people.

Through response-based sponsorship, partners can fund blocks of Digital Mentor conversations for a selected audience or across eligible mentoring pathways.

Your Support. Their Opportunity to Grow.

Digital Mentor offers a straightforward sponsorship model based on completed mentoring responses. Rather than paying for advertising impressions or clicks, sponsors support actual opportunities for people to ask questions, think critically, and receive guidance grounded in Johnnie Mandela's approved intellectual property.

Step 1

Choose Your Audience

Elementary students, ages 8–10
Middle school students, ages 11–13
High school students, ages 14–18
The full Ask Coach J youth pathway, ages 8–18
Ask Johnnie M adult users, ages 19+
All eligible Digital Mentor audiences

Audience selection is based on broad, approved program categories — not individual behavioral profiling or sensitive personal information.

Step 2

Choose Your Response Block

Sponsors select the number of eligible mentoring responses they wish to support.

$0.10 per sponsored response

1,000 responses — $100
5,000 responses — $500
10,000 responses — $1,000
25,000 responses — $2,500
50,000 responses — $5,000
100,000 responses — $10,000

Step 3

Support Meaningful Conversations

Your sponsorship helps fund eligible mentoring responses delivered through Digital Mentor. Each response draws on the platform's approved knowledge sources and age-appropriate conversational framework.

What counts as a sponsored response

A sponsored response is a completed, eligible mentoring answer delivered by Digital Mentor and counted under an approved sponsorship agreement. Failed responses, duplicate deliveries, and internal testing are excluded. The final sponsorship agreement establishes any additional billing exclusions, allocation rules, and reporting procedures.

Put Your Partnership in Their Hands.

Qualified sponsors may receive contextual brand recognition within Digital Mentor — subject to the sponsorship agreement and platform safety policies. Recognition is quiet and neutral: it acknowledges who helps make free mentoring possible.

An approved example

Example of the response-level attribution as it appears beneath a mentoring response — clearly identified as sponsorship, outside the advice itself, never interrupting it.

Contextual recognition associated with a defined block of sponsored mentoring responses.
A short attribution such as “Powered by Shooting for P.E.A.C.E.”
A discreet, accessible link from the attribution to the sponsor's approved official website.
Optional co-branded promotional graphics showing the sponsor alongside Digital Mentor, subject to logo approval.
Aggregate reporting showing the number of eligible mentoring responses supported by the sponsor.

Each approved sponsor is added individually — approved logo, verified official website, campaign, funded-response allocation, and active dates — without rebuilding the platform. Digital Mentor remains the permanent app identity on every home screen; sponsor branding never replaces it.

Sponsorship never influences the substance of mentoring advice.
Sponsors never receive access to private conversations, children's identities, or personal information.
No behavioral advertising, user profiling, or targeted advertising toward minors.
Sponsor links are reviewed for youth safety and never interrupt a mentoring response.

Support the Conversation. Never Control It.

Sponsors make mentoring opportunities possible. They do not determine the advice users receive, select individual students, access private conversations, or influence the intelligence that powers Coach J or Ask Johnnie M.

Sponsorship remains separate from the mentoring response-generation process.
No behavioral advertising, student tracking for sponsor targeting, or sponsored product recommendations to minors.
Sponsors never receive student identities, individual questions, transcripts, or personal conversation histories.
Any future sponsorship reporting uses privacy-protective aggregate information with appropriate minimum thresholds.
Ask Coach J remains free for all eligible youth, whether or not a sponsorship block is active.
Adult access to Ask Johnnie M and its future membership architecture is unchanged — sponsorship may fund eligible adult responses without overriding existing access rules.
