Mentorship Program worth putting on resume?

Quick background, I'm a rising sophomore at a non-target and was recently invited to do a small mentorship program with a BB where they connect me with an analyst there and I can contact them throughout Summer and ask questions and build a relationship. Is this worth putting on my resume since it isn't anything super significant or me doing any work?

Maybe something under the academic section...Not sure how you could spin it under professional experience or leadership (since you're the mentee...).

I was also part of a mentorship program my freshman year, and I added that on my resume - had people give me feedback that it established I had demonstrable interest in finance, had experience networking and speaking with people in the industry, and to some extent took initiative early on in my college years to seek those kinds of opportunities out. I was also an econ major at a target school without much finance experience though so take with a grain of salt if you already have tons of finance internships etc. I was asked a few times in my sophomore year IB interviews about it too.

 

What do you think the best way to go about putting it on a resume would be in terms of adding bulletin points or describing what you did?
