Nonprofit Mentoring Program Relationship & Impact Survey
Measures how mentees experience match quality, meeting consistency, and goal progress in a nonprofit mentoring program, with an AI follow-up that digs into why relationships work or stall so program staff can improve matching and support rather than just tallying satisfaction scores.

How likely are you to recommend this mentoring program to a friend or colleague who could benefit from it?
Explore the story behind this person's match-quality and satisfaction ratings. If ratings were high, find out specifically what the mentor does or the program set up that makes it work, and whether it's the match, the structure, or both. If ratings were mediocre or low, probe concretely: what's missing from meetings, what goals feel stuck, and whether the issue is the specific mentor match or the program's structure and communication. Ask for one specific recent interaction that illustrates their experience.
What's one change that would make this mentoring program more valuable for you?
What is your age range?
- Under 18
- 18-24
- 25-34
- 35-44
- 45-54
- 55-64
- 65 or older
- Prefer not to say
How do you describe your gender?

- Man
- Non-binary
- Self-describe

That's everything — thank you for sharing your experience! Your answers will be reviewed by program staff to improve mentor matching and support, and will never be shared with your mentor directly.

How it compares
We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.
Why this template
- Goes beyond a static satisfaction score with an AI follow-up interview that explores the story behind each mentee's match-quality and satisfaction ratings, surfacing why relationships work or stall.
- Combines structured measurement (opinion scales on match quality and likelihood to recommend, a matrix of relationship-agreement statements, and a MaxDiff prioritization of support types) with open-ended long-text feedback for richer, mixed-method data.
- Captures meeting frequency, match duration, and satisfaction alongside light demographic segmentation (age range, gender) so program staff can spot patterns in who thrives and who doesn't.
- Produces an auto-generated report from the full response set, including the qualitative follow-up, so staff get actionable insight without manually reading and coding every transcript.
QuestionPro
Non Profit Mentoring Programs Survey Questions + Sample Questionnaire TemplateA directly comparable nonprofit mentoring survey template with sample questions covering match quality and program experience. It reads as a static questionnaire reference rather than a fielding-ready adaptive interview, aimed at giving programs a starting question set to copy or adapt. Good topical fit but limited to fixed-question data collection.
What it does well
- Purpose-built for the nonprofit mentoring context, not a generic form
- Comes with sample questions that can be used as a quick starting questionnaire
- Backed by an established, broad survey platform
Where it falls short
- No adaptive AI follow-up to probe why a mentee rated match quality or satisfaction the way they did
- No voice AI interview option or guided screen-share tasks
- No automated per-response quality scoring or auto-generated qualitative report
Jotform
Mentoring Program Survey Form TemplateA ready-to-use, customizable form-builder template for collecting mentoring program feedback, well suited to quick deployment and embedding. It's a static form rather than an interview experience, so it's easy to launch but limited in how deeply it can explore a respondent's answers. Best fit for teams wanting a simple, editable form over rich qualitative insight.
What it does well
- Drag-and-drop customization and easy embedding typical of Jotform's form builder
- Fast to launch with minimal setup
- Flexible field types for basic mentoring feedback collection
Where it falls short
- No adaptive AI follow-up questions — every respondent sees the same fixed fields
- No automated quality scoring of individual responses
- No AI-generated report synthesizing open-ended feedback
