Getting help around the garage is difficult at best.

Have you considered the Boys Clubs of America? Also why not discuss the problem with a High School Counselor.

There are boys and girls out there who don't fit into the academic world, who are hands on, have promise, but need to be shown that they can be a success outside of the academic world. Probably make more money and be happier than if they did try to shoe horn themselves into academic courses.

Also you might consider a person from a newly arrived group. Hard work and learning skills are two things recent immigrants are ready to accept.

You may find that helping a young person also helps you if the process is approached with an open attitude.

I look forward to reading of your further efforts in finding someone.
