Fall Creek Township Food Pantry
Assignment |
Timeline |
For this project we were given a list of businesses with specific problems that needed to be solved. We were able to choose one to work with and off we went. I chose to be a part of solving the issue given to us by the Fall Creek Township Food Pantry. There challenge they gave us to solve was to figure out different ways to draw attention and potential donators to their pantry. I was attracted to this challenge because I have always been very interested in marketing and social interaction. As soon as I read the challenge I instantly had ideas pop into my head and I knew this would be something I would enjoy to dig deeper into. My fellow group members were Kacie Lima and Courtney baker and for 4 weeks, we worked diligently together to find different types of solutions to help spread awareness of the food pantry.
ChallengesOne of the main challenges my group faced was through communication. Since I am in 5th period innovations class and they are both in 4th period, it was difficult to find in school time to discuss the project. All three of us also participate in an overwhelming amount of extra-curriculars which got in the way of finding time outside of school to get together as well. An easy fix to this problem, was to become reliant on texting and emailing regularly to make sure everyone was aware what was going on at all times. This almost entirely eliminated the need for talking in person until it came time to meet with our community partners to discuss our ideas. |
