Our Story

Innovative Mentoring Software Innovative Mentoring Software was founded in 2001 by a Minnesota team of software engineers (and mentors!) who saw a need for better data management systems within the mentoring community. Passionate about mentoring AND robust software, the company grew to serve organizations nationwide.

In 2024, the journey came full circle when Innovative Mentoring Software became a division of Orphan Software, a technology-oriented holding company with a mission beyond business growth. Orphan Software is 1/3rd owned by “The Orphan Charitable Trust,” which directs all profits to charities benefiting orphans and widows worldwide.

Innovative Mentoring Software continues its legacy, creating happy clients who are passionate about our product. We are committed to providing you with a user-friendly yet powerful way to manage your unique data tracking and reporting needs.

We know that for some kids, having compassionate adults who care about them and advocate for them can change their lives...or even save their lives. We love the work we do, and we know that you do, too. We want to team up with you to make a difference.
