Get datatable and filling model from it

Question

In my project i have a fill method.

  public IList<MyModel> Fill(DataTable dt)
    {
        IList<MyModel> IProperty = new List<MyModel>();
        for (int i = 0; i < dt.Rows.Count; i++)
        {
            MyModel Property = new MyModel
            {
                Name= dt.Rows[i]["Name"].ToString(),
                Surname = dt.Rows[i]["Surname"].ToString(),
                Age = dt.Rows[i]["Age"].ToString(),
            };
            IProperty.Add(Property);
        }
        return IProperty;
    }

It fill my model from datatable. But i must write this fill method for all model. I dont want to write this method all the time. I need a solution for this. I'm open to any kind of proposal

Not:I dont want to use Entity framework or other ORM frameworks.

If you can make sure the field names and properties of the object with the same name, try this:

public IEnumerable<T> Fill<T>(DataTable dt)
    where T : new()
{
    return dt.AsEnumerable().Select(row =>
    {
        var obj = new T();
        var properties = 
            from p in obj.GetType().GetProperties()
            join c in dt.Columns.Cast<DataColumn>() on p.Name equals c.ColumnName
            select new {p, c};
        foreach (var item in properties)
            item.p.SetValue(obj, row[item.c]);
        return obj;
    });
}
