A Blog First

For the first time in Weekly Blog history, we have had a request for coverage! In honor of this milestone, I shall blog the request, pretty much in its entirety.

Hi, Jimmy,

My name is Jennifer Warren and I live in the NW part of Tucson. I need your help in getting some exposure and a very important request out to the Tucson Community. I am the local international coordinator representing Aspect Foundation a Foreign Youth Exchange Non Profit organization 501(c)3 (www.aspectfoundation.org) and I have several kids who are coming to study in local Tucson area High Schools. They need families to volunteer to open their Hearts, homes, and tables ASAP. Will you please publish this request to the Tucson Weekly Blog website as soon as is convenient…I did send a request for this to be printed in the Bulletin Board section…But, honestly, TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE for these really neat teens and they deserve immediate help and attention….THANK YOU for anything you can do to help these kids achieve their American Dreams!
