Review for AFK Youth Mentoring, Sammamish, WA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

At the age of five my son Cooper was diagnosed with PDD-NOS, depression and anxiety. One of the specialists referred us to Athletes for Kids and it has been one of the most amazing, positive experiences for our son. He has been matched up with his mentor for about nine months and thinks the world of him.

They see one another regularly depending on school/sports commitments between the two of them and our son always raves about how smart, fun and nice his mentor is. The bond and friendship and that my son has experienced through his mentor has been remarkable.

The athlete mentoring my son is a star athlete and all around great kid, however he is very humble, kind and patient with Cooper always makes him feel like his equal.

The Athletes for Kids organization is amazing in how they continually check in with me to make sure everything is going well. The volunteers running this are second to none and I am eternally grateful for everything they are doing. Lives are being changed and children are being helped one match up at a time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
