Ambassador Program

The Ambassador Project was kicked off with the hiring of an Ambassador
Coordinator/Recruitment Director in May of 2006 and has as its focus an
accelerated rate of mentor recruitment in the metro area.

Ambassadors are people who believe in the Kinship mission of helping kids realize their God
given potential through relationships with positive adult role models. Ambassadors are willing
to speak to friends, co-workers, and church groups about their experiences with Kinship and/or
their general understanding of the value of mentorship. Some have offered their time to speak
at public events, churches, and to service groups. Many of our ambassadors are mentors;
others are simply people who wish to make a difference for the 150 children currently waiting
for a Kinship friend and mentor. All give their time as volunteers out of love for children and a
desire to see our communities become gentler places to raise its youth. Might you have a few
hours each month to help us change lives?

Building Healthier Communities - One Relationship at a Time

We believe in Children—
Little ones, big ones,
Thin ones and chubby ones.
There is faith in their eyes,
Love in their touch.
Hope in their attitude.
We thrill with them at life’s joys,
Bow with them in worship,
And hold them close in tragedy.
We believe in children,
The fragile dream of yesterday,
Life’s radiant reality today
And vibrant substance of
tomorrow.
We believe in children,
For wherever we go,
We find yesterday’s children
Who were nurtured in love, truth,
and beauty,
At work trying to make this world a
better place for everyone.
