Meet Jaxon. Our Mentor Match team celebrated Jaxon’s 18th birthday with a group of matched mentors and mentees at Dave and Buster’s last month. Why is this a big deal? Six months ago, Jaxon had no one. No one he could call when in a difficult spot, no one speaking life into him as he entered adulthood, no one to put as his emergency contact. Mere months from turning 18 and aging out of foster care alone, Jaxon came to a Mentor Match event and met Freddy. For Freddy and Jaxon, it was an instant connection. Within a few weeks, Jaxon and Freddy were matched. A few months ago, Jaxon had no one. A few weeks ago, Jaxon celebrated his 18th birthday at Freddy’s house surrounded by his 3 teenage boys.
