About Me:
I led a volunteer-based tutor/mentor program for more than 35 years. I created the Tutor/Mentor Institute, LLC in 2011 to share ideas, innovate and help tutor/mentor programs grow in Chicago and other cities. I use my blog and the http://www.tutormentorexchange.net web site to share what I and others know so that more and better tutor/mentor programs can grow in Chicago and other major cities.
What do you hope to learn, or share, on this forum?
My goal is to inspire members to use the ideas we share in their own daily actions so that we increase the reach and frequency of messages that mobilize volunteers and donors to support volunteer-based tutor/mentor programs in Chicago and other cities where there are high concentrations of poverty.

Hello Dan,
I hope you are doing great as well, especially under the current pandemic, and appreciate your warm welcoming! I've been very busy with life. But I've managed to find my post and work coincidentally from google search, so here I joined.
Right after my exchange student experience in Chicago, I transferred to Arizona State University and finished my degree there. Thankfully, I was able to get a job in Phoenix as a Software Engineer and now I'm settled down in Phoenix, AZ.
I would love to visit Chicago sometime soon and talk!
Best,
Hello, Dan!
The article on Rio describes very well what is happening.
And your report is very important, also.
One of the worst obstacles to social justice in Brazil has been judicial inequality.
It would be worth trying to translate this short article from a known doctor who works in prisons in the city of São Paulo, here http://www1.folha.uol.com.br/colunas/drauziovarella/2017/08/1907201....
I appreciated very much the link for the CLMOOC and will participate.
Daniel
Hi, Daniel
I've been reading your posts for one week (since you viewed my profile in Linkedin) and as I start to understand the TMC's principles, I become more and more interested. I work as a sociology teacher in Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, and I think the kind of approach you propose is totally original here, so I'm a begginer.
Thanks,
Daniel Delmanto
Hi, Daniel.
Thank you for the response! You do not need to worry about me, I'll play nice in the sandbox. I was invited by a friend of mine to join, so I am checking it out. I would love to grab coffee in the loop sometimes. Email me at travis@donorpath.org, and we'll find a time to connect.
Best,
Travis
Hey Dan
I don't know if you remember me. I spoke at the June 2013 conference and have attended earlier conferences. I told you I would consider volunteering after I retired. Can you use some help getting the next conference together? Maxine
Daniel,
Today I shared information with two start-up organizations about your websites
and how it is the best resources for a new business. We plan on working together on your website.
Kind Regards

Daniel,
Thank you for sharing this information. I will be reviewing it. Look forward to chatting down the road.
Kind regards,
Scott
Daniel, one of the reasons I was attracted to a conversation with you is that you had already posted the graphic on Mentoring Kids to Careers. Thanks for sharing the link again.
Scott
Thanks for your note. Could we chat sometime next Wednesday over the phone? Kind regards, S
Daniel,
Thank you for your help. We are a new group, having trouble finding volunteers. I will follow your advice and see what happen. If there is anything I can do to assist you, please let me know.
Thanks,
Jay
