This Friday, Oct. 9, we'll host our annual Martini Madness event in Chicago. We expect 75 to 100 people. Should be a good time.

For those who cannot attend, we've set up a Martini Madness fund raising page. I hope you'll make a donation and encourage others to do the same.

We've set up a group page on the GiveForward web site which you can find at http://www.giveforward.org/CabriniTMC/

This is a place where anyone who wants to help, can set up an event and raise money from friends and family to support Cabrini Connections, Tutor/Mentor Connection.

If you want to support a different tutor/mentor program, the site makes it easy to set up a cause page to do that.

This is the graphic.

I've posted this image on our blogs and will be sending it via email to about 1300 people on our database. If you'd like to create a different Back to School graphic that you feel would prompt donors to respond better than this, please do so and share it here. Maybe others can use it too.

We've had a growing number of people join this forum. Now I hope you'll each take a role in building conversations around the themes and mission of this site.

Have you every been a volunteer, leader, board member, donor, or student in a tutor/mentor program?

What is the difference between a pure tutor, pure mentor, or combined tutor/mentor program?

Do you work at a business, university, hospital w here you might influence the involvement of other people in programs in your community? Is there a database of programs that people can search for volunteer opportunities?

These can all be topics for discussions. Feel free to submit your own. Please keep them focused on volunteerism, tutoring and/or mentoring, workforce development, philanthropy, etc.

The next Tutor/Mentor Leadership and Networking Conference will be held in Chicago on May 29 and 30. On the website is a list of attendees, which you can vew to see who is attending. If you click on a person's name, you can send them a message, and make arrangements to meet.

We hope this helps people attending the conference to meet and network with more of the people who they wanted to meet from a conference like this. We also hope it encourages continued networking after the conference.

If you are attending the conference, why not introduce yourself here and talk about your program, your interests, and what you hope to gain from your networking.
