Looking for a mentor: Cody

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: Cody (Kids ‘n Kinship)

First name: Cody

Age: 8

Interests: Cody loves to swim and climb, bike and be on his scooter. He’s got a big imagination and always has a blast making up adventures. He is active, loves museums, parks, and the zoo. He also loves his toys and especially his Lego sets.

Personality/Characteristics: Cody describes himself as a pet lover and funny.  Mom describes Cody as an active kid with big emotions. He loves to climb, swim, play outside, and learn about animals. He is great with helping his mom take care of their dog and new goldfish!

Goals/dreams: He doesn’t know what he will be when he grows up, but it will likely be a job working with animals!  His guardian notes that, “I’m hoping Cody would connect with someone who will help boost his self-confidence and self-identity through fun experiences together. As well as someone he can confide in and learn from.” His 3 wishes would be to: 1) Have Free Roblox Points 2) Have LOTS of money 3) Have his own private island so he can do whatever he wants.
