  • 2004-06-23 Received call from singer/songwriter Alice Peacock, www.alicepeacock.com. She is organizing a RockforReading Concert to be held in Chicago in late August, and the beneficiaries are a) Chicago Public Schools, b) Chicago Public Library, c) New City YMCA, and d) Tutor/Mentor Connection! She told me that the T/MC was recommended for inclusion in this group by Arne Duncan, CEO of Chicago Public Schools
  • 2004-08-28 First Annual Rock for Reading Music Festival held in Chicago. Organized by music artist Alice Peacock, and sponsored by The Chicago Sun Times, this event was designed to raise visibility for reading programs and raise money for four charities: The Chicago Public Schools, Chicago Public Library, New City YMCA and Tutor/Mentor Connection. The T/MC used the event to raise visibility and help recruit volunteers for tutor/mentor programs. Five organizations participated in recruiting volunteers: East Village Youth Program, Cabrini-Green Tutoring Program, CYCLE, Project Education Plus and Cabrini Connections. Unfortunately, it rained all day and was cold. Few people attended and the event was ended at 7pm instead of 11pm. While this means that few dollars were raised, the event led to many networking connections that the T/MC and others can use in the future.
