Willow,<br />
<br />
I'd like to see you and Jenny develop a press release, showing your involvement with Cabrini Connections, Tutor/Mentor Connection. Let me review it. Then look for media in Chicago, and China, that you can send it to, suggesting an interview with you and Jenny. If you can get this sent to 20 or 30 media outlets, maybe one or more will do a story. That will help draw readers to our blogs and event web sites.

I like "Since virtual things is sure win, even if it is hard, we also will try. " something we persist in is depend on our faith.

Well said, Bradley. I encourage you all to take a look at this Mention Map and see how it visualizes your network on Twitter. <a href="http://apps.asterisq.com/mentionmap/#user-tutormentorteam" target="_blank">http://apps.asterisq.com/mentionmap/#user-tutormentorteam</a><br />
<br />
It's another tool to use in finding the person who is three people removed from you, but who could be the one person to make a difference in the future of Cabrini Connections and the kids we work with.

Great blog post! Very honest.<br />
<br />
I know that networking can seem tough when you're a young person (I graduated from college last year.), but remember what you said last week about an individuals' connection network. It's not always about who <i>you</i> know; it's also about who <i>they</i> know. I don't work at a big corporation with a charitable giving foundation, but a lot of our volunteers do... some of my friends do... some of my extended family members do.<br />

You just need to be persistent and consistent. Sometimes I also wonder, "Who is actually reading this?" when I write a blog post, but I can look at Google Analytics and see that more than 300 people view <a href="http://cabrinipip.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">my blog</a> every month. If just one of those people takes something away from what I say and uses it to spread our message, it's worth it. The best connections I've made were unexpected ones. Stick with it! You will succeed! You're right.

You're right. Network building takes time, and persistence. I encourage you to review <a href="http://www.tutormentorexchange.net/images/PDF/tmc_socialedge.pdf" target="_blank">this pdf</a> from the May 2010 conference. It shows how I've built a strong relationship with Charles Cameron, who I first met in the Social Edge forum several years ago. We had never met until he came to the conference.<br />

<br />
Now if you <a href="http://www.socialedge.org/discussions/business-models/maps-and-whats-possible" target="_blank">visit this link</a>, you'll see how Charles has taken our discussion back to Social Edge, where he is introducing people he knows to the work we are doing.<br />

Some people might respond to a request for help, the first time they are asked, because of their trust in the person making the request. Others may take many years of repeated exposure to the cause before they take an interest. As long as we can end each day knowing how many people in our network we've touched, we can feel good about what we've done.
