• Teen Mentoring Initiative, a joint venture with Big Brothers Big Sisters, began in Abilene in 1997 and has expanded statewide.  Each AHS PAL mentors a selected students at an elementary or middle school throughout the school year.

• GOALS (Getting Others to Achieve Lifetime Success) 1st graders work with PALS to entrench the goal of high school graduation. GOALS is an effort of the AHS PALS to lessen the drop out rate in Abilene.

• Service projects are team efforts in which awesome work occurs.  PALS select a non-profit organization to fill a specific or ongoing need.  Food, fellowship, and work make these fun, memorable times for us.

• Adopt-an-Angel, a joint venture with the Salvation Army, has PALS supervising AHS students in providing Christmas for less fortunate youngsters.

• Pennies for Pasta is a fund raising effort PALS lead to benefit research for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society to help cure blood cancers.

• Outdoor Adventure was funded through a grant from Texas Parks & Wildlife to enable PALS to mentor elementary students through camping, fishing, and other outdoor activities.

• Personal as well as group growth round out the PALS experience. The training we receive will serve us well in life after high school.
