Hello,

Next Year, there is this huge project that lasts through the whole year.
September 2010 - April 2011.
We have to do a project on something we are passionate about.
I asked the teacher if I could do it on my t-shirt company, and she said it's a great idea.
So, the reason why I'm writing this is because each student is required to have a mentor.

What the mentor does:
You wouldn't have to come to my school; they said the mentor could live on the other side of the world.
All you would have to do is give me advice, and research tips. You could also tell me things like how you started your company, where you buy all your supplies, etc.

We would communicate via e-mail and Skype. You wouldn't be talking to me 24/7, just an occasional e-mail, and maybe 2 or 3 Skype calls throughout the entire year.

I thought this would be the best place to find one, because I don't personally know anyone in the t-shirt business. And I'm sorry if this is in the wrong forum, I just assumed this is the most viewed one and would be the best place to find one.

So, if you are interested, or have any questions, please e-mail me.
Remember, it doesn't start till next year, but they want people to have a mentor before school starts.

This would be a HUGE help and I would be so appreciative.

THANKS,
Tristan
