Shining spotlight on Chicago tutor and mentor programs

On Saturday I wrote about my annual effort to update links to Chicago non-school tutor and/or mentor programs in my web library.  I've been Tweeting to draw attention to programs as I do this.

Here's a few more

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metro Chicago. @BBBSChi I point to the map on their site that shows site-based locations.

Map shows locations of site-based mentoring offered by @BBBSChi Great to see programs in NW Indiana. I've tried to locate #tutor #mentor programs in that area for many years,. Can't find much. Here's BBBS map. https://t.co/IyDgU0TZet pic.twitter.com/M0YGcQ9GQG

Horizons for Youth @HorizonsFY

@HorizonsFY web site provides extensive information about work they do with #Chicago youth. https://t.co/n58wexsSfD I've had them in #tutor #mentor program database for 20 years. pic.twitter.com/GjDEDp6Mfl

Highsight @HighSightChi

@HighSightChi has been one of strongest supporters of Tutor/Mentor Connection over past 25 years. They hosted our conferences three times in early 2000s. Visit their web site and see work they do. https://t.co/wCghsUmQrW pic.twitter.com/qHGYvgySMb

I also pointed to a presentation I created to show things I'd like to see on every tutor/mentor program web site. Few include most of this. Thus, donors will need to encourage it, and provide funds for the work of collecting data and updating sites.

I post info about #Chicago #tutor #mentor orgs to help volunteers, parents & donors find them, and to help them connect & learn from each other. They each need to be great! In this pdf I show info I'd like to see on all youth org web sites. https://t.co/zpSAA4wjYF pic.twitter.com/FHSRGT5BC5

I'm just one person, with no source of income, so need others to help do this work. That was message in this Tweet

I'm just one person, so what I can do to draw attention, ideas & resources to more than 200 #tutor #mentor orgs in #Chicago & others around USA is limited. However, if other do as I do, we can dramatically increase support for many orgs in many places. https://t.co/OB9Wy1JE1B
