I understand the negatives that are growing on the Bird site, but it's still the only place where I can build a list of #Chicago youth #tutor#mentor programs and use my posts to try to draw attention, volunteers & donors to each of them. https://twitter.com/i/lists/1276149804511506434
Many of these #nonprofit orgs post on LinkedIn, FB & Instagram. Few yet on Mastodon. The other platforms don't have list feature like Bird site.

I'm in search of a #mentor; specifically someone with experience in hard-hitting, investigative #journalism. With papers closing left and right, my window for making these connections is closing, so I'm leaning on my network to help introduce me. Know anyone?

📸 2007 photo is with Archie B., a Boston weightlifting pioneer. Beneath his unassuming exterior lay a record-breaking athlete with a chest full of championship titles. I met him at the YMCA in the early 2000s, where his gentle guidance would lead me far beyond the iron.
He taught me to lift both weights and spirits, leaving a lasting impact on my life. 💪🏾

I had my second meeting with my new business mentor today, and we both got so excited about my goals and plans for reaching them. 😁
If you think a mentor might help you, I found Jim through the SCORE small business support program in US. It's free, so all it costs to give it a try is time.

Hi fediverse. My name is Nishiki and I’m a web dev with 15+ years of experience. I’m making myself available as a mentor for one or two motivated individuals looking to land their first junior engineering position. I’m happy to be able to say over the past few years, I’ve mentored 4 wonderful people who have all managed to land their first tech jobs.
Please email me at hello@nshki.com if interested. A boost for reach is much appreciated!

I get to see the kiddo #swim laps with a #MiddleSchool proto-team (kind of the work-it-out stage) tomorrow. 1st time seeing it for me.
My team at work really like each other, and that warms my heart.
