If you do it free of charge, then yes, it is considered as volunteering and you can laim PDUs for it under giving back to the profession!

Okay. But, it should reflect in the Community Portal. Right?

Only if the mentorship opportunity is with PMI:

1) If you applied for the opportunity through the VRMS, and you were accepted then it will appear on your profile autimatically.

2) If you volunteered with PMI without applying, you can still add this manually if you go to your Volunteer Profile.

PMI has mentoring volunteers, for example the mentoring program that many chapters organize. In addition to mentoring opportunities organized by PMI Global.
They are published in the VEP (Volunteer Opportunities Platform)
