Kids 'n Kinship Info Session

Please join us for an upcoming informational session about becoming a mentor at Kids 'n Kinship! 

Mentors are always needed for children in the Dakota County community at Kids 'n Kinship. There are currently 40+ youth waiting to be matched with a supportive adult and the need for male mentors is great.

This is an ongoing volunteer opportunity and we do ask for a minimum one-year commitment, meeting with your mentee once a week

What it's all about:
Kids 'n Kinship is non-profit organization that matches children who have a need for an additional supportive relationship with carefully screened adult volunteers. Volunteers spend one hour per week with the child out in the community.

Kids 'n Kinship match individuals (21+), couples, or families with youth ages 5-16 in need of positive role model.

• We encourage low / no-cost activities like playing a board game, sledding, taking a trip to a park, bike riding, baking cookies, playing catch or going to the library.
• We provide training and ongoing support and offer discounted passes to area attractions and events to make activities affordable.
• Mentoring matches are made based on compatible personalities, ages and interests as well as preferences of both the volunteer mentor and the youth and parent/guardian.

Through their Mentor relationship, the child will form a long-term friendship with a caring adult, receive positive attention and develop the sense of self-worth that is essential to successfully function in life.

You can make a difference in the life of a child or teen living in Apple Valley, Burnsville, Eagan, Farmington, Lakeville, or Rosemount!
