Kinship of Polk County works to improve the quality of a child’s life by establishing a relationship with a caring mentor for the purpose of promoting stability, support, friendship, and community.

Kinship is a non-profit mentoring agency for children ages 5-18 and has been in existence and changing lives since 1980. Kinship kids are young people who would benefit from the extra support, encouragement, and companionship a properly matched and consistent friendship can provide. Kinship mentors are people who are willing and able to invest in such a friendship with a child or young person in need. Kinship mentors may be in many walks of life: they can be married, single, male, female, young, or older adults.

As a mentoring agency for children, Kinship of Polk County offers two mentoring options: traditional community-based mentoring and school mentoring.

KINSHIP OF POLK COUNTY BELIEVES IN THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP!  YOU HAVE TO ABILITY TO IMPACT A LIFE, TO BUILD UP A CHILD, AND TO CHANGE THE WORLD ONE PERSON AT A TIME IN THE PROCESS.
