Mentors typically pick-up and drop-off the child, and spend time together doing fun activities that are appealing to both the mentor and mentee. Our screening process considers personalities, common interests, backgrounds, etc. in making the best possible match for the volunteers and children on the waiting list. The program serves children in the following communities: Burnsville, Apple Valley, Lakeville, Eagan, Farmington, and Rosemount. Volunteers are not required to live in those areas but would need to be willing to drive to the mentee. Virtual Information Sessions are available for potential mentors to learn more. Upcoming informational sessions are November 10 from 6:30 – 7:30 pm and November 23 from 6:30 – 7:30 pm. Mentor Application: www.kidsnkinship.org/mentor-application.
