+summary: "We have proposed a project for the June cohort of the CNCF's LFX Mentorship 
+    program, and we’re looking for mentees to sign up and receive a stipend for 
+    their work."
+---
+
+[LFX Mentorship](https://lfx.linuxfoundation.org/tools/mentorship/) is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation mentorship 
+platform that spans across the CNCF projects. More than 190 mentees have been 
+accepted since the programs started in 2019, participating in 96 mentorship 
+programs. We have proposed a project for the June cohort, and we’re looking 
+for mentees to sign up and receive a stipend for their work!
+
+## Implementing “Declarative Management of PostgreSQL Foreign Data Wrappers” 
+The project we proposed aims to extend the CloudNativePG operator to support 
+declarative configuration of foreign data wrappers through its Database custom 
+resource ([Upstream Issue](http://cloudnative-pg/cloudnative-pg#4683)). 
+PostgreSQL supports the SQL/MED (Management of External Data) specification, 
+enabling access to external data sources through standard SQL queries. These 
+sources—known as foreign data—are accessed via foreign data wrappers (FDWs), 
+which are libraries that handle the connection and data exchange with the 
+external systems. A variety of FDWs are available for PostgreSQL. 
+Of particular interest for this project is the postgres_fdw extension, 
+which facilitates access to other PostgreSQL instances.
+
+We’re looking forward to an elaborate design discussion in the upstream issue 
+in CloudNativePG GitHub repository, involving mentors, maintainers, and the 
+community. And ultimately of course, a fully working pull request implementing 
+support for declarative foreign data wrappers, complete with reconciliation 
+logic for the Database resource controller, Documentation, and automated tests 
+integrated into the CI/CD pipeline.
+
+## Sign up as a mentee
+Up for the task? You'll have to apply as a mentee on the [LFX Mentorship website](https://lfx.linuxfoundation.org/tools/mentorship/). 
+Please see the [LFX Mentorship guidelines](https://docs.linuxfoundation.org/lfx/mentorship/mentee-guide) for more details. 
+
+Applications are open from May 14 until May 27, with the selection 
+notifications going out on June 4, and the program starting June 9. 
+The stipend guides and amounts are listed [here](https://docs.linuxfoundation.org/lfx/mentorship/mentee-stipends).
+
+We are specifically looking for the following skills / existing knowledge of:
+* Go programming (operator development)
+* Kubernetes and CRDs (Custom Resource Definitions)
+* Git and GitHub workflows
+* CloudNativePG
+* Familiarity with PostgreSQL internals and SQL syntax
+
+... please also see the full eligibility criteria in the [LFX Mentorship documentation](https://docs.linuxfoundation.org/lfx/mentorship/mentees).
+
+You’ll receive the expert guidance of 4 of CloudNativePG’s maintainers:
