While the T/MC is not able to accept tax-deductible donations we still are in need of financial support, investments and sponsorship. Read more.Daniel F. Bassill, founder of Cabrini Connections and the Tutor/Mentor Connection in 1993 resigned from his role as President, CEO of the Cabrini Connections organization in July 2011. Bassill writes, "Even though CC and Tutor/Mentor Connection are separating into two different organizational structures, I will continue to use this blog, networking, and the ideas and resources shared on the T/MC web site to help leaders in business, religion, politics, sports and media build a collective understanding of a tutor/mentor program as a place connecting a wide range of people and ideas in a long term effort to help kids move through school and into jobs and careers."

Our slogan is "if it is to be, it is up to me." We have made a commitment to support tutor/mentor programs in the Chicago region. However, we are doing this with a fraction of the money needed to serve the third largest urban area in the country.
