MENTOR Minnesota recruits caring adults to help introduce a child to new ideas and opportunities through mentoring. Here’s one of the kids who could use a mentor’s help.

First name: Jace

Age: 13

Interests: Jace loves skateboarding, snowboarding, fishing, playing hockey and playing on his Playstation. He enjoys watching and cheering for the Vikings. He really enjoys math at school, but isn’t a big fan of reading or writing.

Personality/Characteristics: Jace is a quiet and polite boy. He would like some attention away from his brother. He says sometimes he gets angry by showing his frustration, but has learned how to manage his anger in a healthy way.

Goals/dreams: Jace would love to have a mentor who could take him outdoors, go fishing with, and be active.
