I'm re-reading #LordofTheRings and just started the third book. I've watched the movies. Several times.

I'm really impressed by how the writers of the movie expanded on several scenes beyond what was in the books.

If someone in your community is hosting lists of youth-serving organizations, like I do at tutormentorexchange.net/chicag, anyone can use their own creativity, visibility and communications to draw greater attention and a better flow of resources to programs in every high poverty area of their region.

If you have a list, share it. If not, build it, then share it.

This could be a student-led project at any school. It could be a collaboration of many schools!

This is a page on the www.tutormentorexchange.net website, which is  hosted by Tutor/Mentor Connection  (1993-present) and Tutor/Mentor Institute, LLC (2011-present).   This view features the lists of Chicago area, volunteer-based tutor, mentor and learning programs that are hosted on the site.

I looked at the list of Top 100 MLB prospects for 2026 and was disappointed to see so few from #Cubs or #WhiteSox

The new season starts with the opening of Spring Training in just a couple of weeks.

This view of 2011 Tutor/Mentor Conferences shows that one participant was Femi Memorial Outreach. I was prompted to look for them after reading a couple of articles on their blog. See tutormentor.blogspot.com/2026/

This is a view of 2011 Tutor/Mentor Leadership and Networking Conference participants, shown on an interactive Kumu.io visualization created by students from the IVMOOC class at Indiana University.  I circled one participant, Femi Memorial Outreach, which is on the list of blogs that I maintain.

Take a look at this open source network mapping tool, created by IVMOOC students from Indiana University. tutormentor.blogspot.com/2026/

This is a page on an open source mapping tool created in late 2025 by a team of students from Indiana University.  It's part of a learning hub that shows ways to collect data from event participants then use that to create network visualizations using Kumu.io, Gephi, and Tableau.

This headline says "Start planning for fall 2026 tutor/mentor programs. While it's only January, the "next year" planning cycle should be growing.  This is from an article on Substack.com

RE: follow.ethanmarcotte.com/@beep

When people from other parts of the US ask what they can do to help Minneapolis, this is the first thing I always tell them: Get organized NOW. Form your community networks NOW. You have no idea how important it’s going to be. You have no idea how much a head start will help.
