2026 Silver Linings THRIVE Mentoring Program Application Form

Welcome to the Silver Linings T.H.R.I.V.E. Mentoring Program 2026–2027 Application.

We are excited that you are interested in becoming part of the Silver Linings THRIVE experience and taking meaningful steps toward your future. THRIVE represents the qualities we believe help young women succeed: Talented, Hardworking, Resilient Individuals Valuing Excellence. If this sounds like you, we encourage you to keep reading.

The THRIVE Mentoring Program is designed for teenage girls who are exploring their future and seeking guidance as they prepare for life after high school. Our goal is to equip rising high school juniors and seniors with the confidence, exposure, and practical life skills needed to navigate their next chapter. Through mentorship, hands-on experiences, and personal development sessions, participants will grow in areas such as leadership, financial literacy, career exploration, self-esteem, and goal setting.

For the 2026–2027 program year, we are seeking six (6) young ladies who are positive, poised, polite, and perfectly imperfect—young women who are ready to grow, learn, and challenge themselves. Over the course of six months, our mentors will work closely with each participant to help identify her strengths, explore her purpose, and support her dreams for the future.

The financial cost to participate is minimal; however, the greatest investment required is your time, commitment, and willingness to grow. We promise the experience will be meaningful, impactful, and worth every minute.

Please complete this application carefully and ensure all information provided is accurate and complete. Do not leave any blank spaces. You may save your progress and return to finish the application, but all submissions must be received no later than April 24, 2026.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact us at hello@platinumhighlights.com.

We look forward to learning more about you and potentially welcoming you into the next class of Silver Linings THRIVE young women.
