I had a nationally award winning project and I’d like to show this off but am not sure where I’d put it. Here a summary of it:
Project description: In collaboration with Underwriters Laboratories (UL), I co-lead a group of 400+ FBLA members in an educational partnership project promoting their Safety Smart program to elementary school aged children over the course of a year. The Safety Smart program involved teaching children safety topics and enforcing them with educational activities. We promoted this project by networking with local high school and elementary school district Superintendents, Park District Recreation Directors, and Elementary School Principals. This mutually beneficial partnership gave members an opportunity to communicate with professionals and tour UL facilities.
Result of project:
- 1115 children educated
- Won 4th at FBLA National Leadership Conference for Partnership with Business event. Award eligibility required compiling a 15 page report and 7 minute presentation.
- Received $1000 scholarship by LifeSmarts
Publicity: - Gurnee Park District News
- Daily Herald
- LifeSmarts
Would I put this under “Maker project” for Slideroom even thought its not really a Maker project?
