Waiting for a Mentor: Sara
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:
First name: Sara
Age: 6
Interests: Sara is a first-grader who likes to play with her older brother and sister. Her favorite toy is her Barbie. At school, she likes going to specialists — gym and art. If she gets frustrated, she likes to use the calming corner in the classroom.
Personality/Characteristics: Sara has a fun-loving and talkative personality. She likes to be silly, but she also says she is a good listener. Her guardian says she can be very independent but craves a lot of attention.
Goals/dreams: If she had a wish, she’d turn herself into a pony or a flower. Her guardian hopes having a mentor will help her navigate life and be another supportive adult in her life.
