Marcella Fulmore started the mentoring program Powerful African-American Males About Success.

The Fairfax County Board of Supervisors recently recognized Marcella Fulmore, a social worker at Robert E. Lee High School, for being named the 2012 Outstanding Mentor by Virginia Mentoring Partnership.

After speaking with African-American males about their plans for college and finding that they could use a little direction, Fulmore started the mentoring program Powerful African-American Males About Success (PAAMAS).

Through PAAMAS, Fulmore arranges for the students to mentor younger students and participate in volunteer work. She also arranges college tours, inspirational guest speakers, sporting events and movie nights for the students in the program.
