School starts in less than 6 weeks. Volunteer-based tutor/mentor programs are looking for tutors and mentors.  Can  you help?

The Tutor/Mentor Connection seeks to help local non profits recruit volunteers throughout the year. However, as school starts each year, we lead an extra effort to mobilize volunteers for tutor/mentor programs. See how your business, faith group, or social network can take a lead in this effort.  

Review a pdf outlining Recruitment Campaign Goals: Recruitment Campaign. Learn about recruiting talent volunteers, and ways you can make the connection.

Tutor/Mentor Jam Concert, August 29 in Chicago - help us make this an event that draws attention and volunteers to tutor/mentor programs throughout the region.  

One way you can take part in the T/MC volunteer recruitment campaign is by participating in a Blog Exchange with the T/MC and others who are recruiting volunteers, or by joining in on-line forums, such as http://tutormentorconnection.ning.com

Join the Recruitment Planning Team
During 2010-11 our aim is to re-build a volunteer-recruitment planning committee, and get more programs, businesses and churches involved in helping mobilize volunteers for tutor/mentor programs. If you'd like to help, you can join this group in the Recruitment Discussion Forum on the Tutor/Mentor Connection web site.
