| Mapping Strategies |
One of the resources made possible by money raised at the annual golf benefit is the Tutor/Mentor Connection's on-line Program Locator database, listing more then 200 different tutoring and/or mentoring locations in the Chicago region.
I encourage you to view the maps at
http://mappingforjustice.blogspot.com and at
http://tutormentor.blogspot.com to see how businesses and faith groups from throughout the Chicago region can work with the Tutor/Mentor Connection to help connect volunteers and youth in volunteer-based tutor/mentor programs.
If you or your company would like to become a sponsor of this strategy, we'd be happy to put your logo on the Program Locator, to show how you are helping volunteers and youth connect in all neighborhoods where you do business, and all places where kids need the help of a program like Cabrini Connections. |
