Tutors Needed Volunteers are needed to join former Detroit Public School students and friends who are working to make a difference by going back to MacDowell Elementary School at 4201 W. Outer Drive in Detroit to support student learning. Volunteers do not need a background in education, only the willingness to work for at least one hour a week with an individual or small group of children. Many other opportunities do not require weekly atten- dance, including working in the library, reading at a story hour or assisting in enrichment programs. For information on the Friends of MacDowell, also associated with the Detroit Jewish Coalition for Literacy, contact Sherry Erman Stewart at (248) 642-5257 or by e- mail at Hste157045@aol.com .

Jamie Rubin Studios jamierubinstudios. com is committed to raising awareness for global social issues through creative projects. Jamie recruited Prinstein, an autism cru- sader, to launch a limited-edition vintage apparel line to bring awareness to the cause. The Detroit natives, now based out of Manhattan, will sell a capsule preview col- lection of STIMUA tee's at both events. The campaign for autism elevates the notion of a statement tee with a high-qual- ity line of basics. The bold graphic logo reworks the letters of "autism" and prints on super-fine cotton blends. STIMUA ref- erences the sensory manner of learning patients with autism use. While the appeal and market is global, the tag team has a focused vision to launch specialized products and events benefiting local communities and programs. The full STIMUA line can be purchased later this month on Jamierubinstudios. corn or at retail locations in New York and TlPtrnit.
