1) I am a strong believer that one should always give back to our community any way possible. Growing up volunteering was something I prioritized in my life, and to this day I make sure to volunteer whenever I get the opportunity to. I was born in Puerto Rico, so my entire family still lives on the island, so I visit often. This organization will play a huge part in my life because it combines two things I love giving back and helping out my people. I feel that this organization will be one that I will never lose passion for because with how unpredictable natural disasters are we will always have something to do. 2) I am offering the opportunity for students to become involved in this organization to help raise money and gather donations. For donors, we will provide monthly emails informing them where donations are being sent based on recent events. This keeps them informed and allows them to feel like they are making a difference, which potentially will lead them to donate more. ...
Natasha,
ReplyDeleteI think you did a great job in your first elevator pitch. One of the things that you did the best was appealing to your audience's emotion. By describing the natural disasters and the people affected by them, you were able to draw out guilt and empathy from the audience, which is key for your organization's success.
Hey Natasha,
ReplyDeleteI think your idea is really noble and there is, and likely always will be, a very real need for assistance in Caribbean countries and states around the Gulf. Storms will never stop, especially as climate change continues to accelerate, so an organization that only exists to help is a very necessary thing. I thought you had a really good pitch and appealed to the emotional side of investors by talking about the devastating power of these storms and the extent of their damage.
