for my bruinfriends--community service?
hello my ucla pals, i'm wondering if there are any of you out there who have nothing to do wednesday nights (or know people who need things to do/love kids) and would like to tutor for watts tutorial program, a program that i'm a director for. i would really love to see you come to our orientation/training meeting if you're interested. we tutor kids from 5 housing projects in south central la and chinatown. we used to have 20 kids, but now we've expanded to 60, but we haven't had enough tutors to respond to this need. we're looking for about 20-30 new tutors, and if you are interested or have questions, don't hesitate to comment here or email me. thanks for listening to this spchiel... i'm just kind of worried because i know we're not advertising enough but we don't really know how so we're all basically trying to bring in our beloved friends :) see below for the ad i cross-posted in the ucla lj community:
