Kids ‘n Kinship provides friendships and positive role models to children and youth ages 5-16 who are in need of an additional supportive relationship with an adult. Here’s one of the youth waiting for a mentor:
Looking for a mentor: Iris (Kids ‘n Kinship)
First name: Iris
Age: 11
Interests: Iris enjoys drawing and most arts and craft projects. She also learned to ride a bike recently so has tried to bike as much as she can! She also enjoys swimming, spending time with her friend, and trying new things.
Personality/Characteristics: Mom describes Iris as smart and sweet. She is quiet and shy at first but warms up quickly. She describes herself as silly, kind and caring. Iris is a bright young girl with a sensitive temperament and big heart.
Goals/dreams: When she grows up he wants to be a therapist for kids! If she had a genie, her three wishes would be to: 1) Move to Florida (so she is close to Disney) 2) Go to Hawaii 3) Take a cruise (she thinks they sound fun, and loves being on the water). Mom is looking for a healthy, strong female dynamic for Iris. An individual or couple match would be best for Iris.
