SOo far, I have gotten together with Savanna and we have decided to do this project together. We have made a calander for the both of us to be able to edit and have filled a couple days of the calender out already. We have to decided that our first day will be to contact the Humane Society and as them what we can do for them and offcer our project to them. I called the Humane Society yesterday, but they did not answer my phone call so I am going to try to call them today during class and hopefully they will answer.

This week we called the Humane Society multiple times and even got the head person's phone number who is in charge and called them as well but she never answered our calls. I left a voice message both times but I never got called back. This weekend or today after school I'm planning on going to the shelter after school and speaking to them in person because they will not answer our calls. We're starting to get really behind but on the bright side, if when I go into speak to them, they are there, then we can do the face-to-face meeting today as well and then after that we should be able to start printing the flyers, posting things about it, getting the word out, etc.

This week I have accomplished a couple of things. I have met with the directors of the Grant County Rescue Mission and I presented my ideas to them. They approved of them. Now I am on to my next task. Which I have talked to Mr. Means, the principal, to show my presentation to the school board members to get it approved by them. I am currently waiting on their repsonse back. But as I wait I am getting together my flyers, which I will print out today after school, to hang around the school for the clothes drive on Monday.

So far this week I have gotten my flyers posted around the school, and a box at the main enterance of the highschool. This week of getting clothes donations was a fail. But hopefully this weekend I can go around my neighborhood and ask anyone if they have any clothes to give out. If that goes well, then I may have a good cahnce of this going good outside of school than inside. I may need to do an announcement for the school to see if anyone will donate more.

My project Idea is to help the women shelter. So far this week I have started planning on how I want to start my project. I also want to call the women shelter and make sure this project is OK to do. This week I need to organize everyone I need to call and the things I need to accomplish. This upcoming week I want to be able to start working on things like possibly a flyer get the word out make sure I have all the calls that need to be down.

This week I plan on designing flyers, getting the word out for a new project. I decided not to work with the women's shelter. Now im rising awareness and making bracelets for the Alpha-1 foundation. This week ive also met up with my Grandmother, who has alpha-1 and talked to her and we made arrangements and made phone calls to Angela. Angela is in charge of fundraisers and all the projects involving alpha-1. I decided on making bracelets, and doing alpha-1 bottles and setting them around to collect change and raise money. We were going to do a walk at the gas city park, but since Covid is around we can not do a walk. I do know they are doing a virtual walk in November where you pay for an app and the money goes to the foundation and they walk on there own time and it tracks where you walk. Next week or this week I plan on making a face book event so my grandma can share that with more people because shes an emt and works with alot of people at the foundation. I found out the color is purple and so I do need to get purple ribbon I went to Hobby Lobby and looked for my supplies I got string and other materials I needed. I also went to Meier and got more things that Hobby Lobby didn't have. Next week I could probably start filling orders but id rather be fully organized and ready before I do that.

Me and Isabella have started working together and have began to put together a calendar that the both of us can edit. We should be able to get a hold of the humane society soon and see if we will be able to do our project.

This week we have tried multiple times to call both the actual office and the main person's personal phone number, but they have yet to answer our calls or call us back. This weekend, or after school today, Isabella was going to go in there and talk to them in person. Once we get a thumbs up from the humane society we should start getting lots of things done.

This week I have contacted the lady who runs the Hope House in Marion to see what I would be doing and I will be helping with the organizing and painting for the new house opening this October. I am also going to be discussing with her today after school about me taking pictures of the progress of the house and how it is coming together to see everything that we have done to prepare the women coming in for the 2nd house.

Day 1 of planning out the details of our project went well. Sarah contacted people at the VA, and I began contacting different schools to have their students write letters to those veterans. We also got the okay to start a food drive. We got permission from 3 different businesses to put drop off boxes in their buildings. We have 2 in Marion, Kitts Realty and Box Express, and 1 in Converse, Steel Magnolias. We plan to email our contacts at the VA to find out what all foods and different items we are allowed to raise.

This week Holly Bauer and I started working on our project, Help The Vets. Our goal with this project is to collect both cash donations and non-cash donations from our community to support our veterans at the VA. We want to remind them that they are thought about, by collecting letters to give to the veterans, if that is possible.

This first week I looked up the Swayzee town council and got the emails of the members. I also got the park councils emails so I can ask them about making the concrete boards there and have a tournament after done making them. I looked up the number for Gra-Rock which is a concrete place, I am going to see if they can make the concrete boards with their extra concrete, but if not then I will start a little fundraiser to pay for the boards. I got the number for best outdoor ping pong tables in case Gra-Rock can't make the corn hole boards I will try to get people to donate so I can order a board from them.

I have started collecting Pringle's cans. I am hoping to collect 30 by September 10th. I need to talk to all the teacher that have a 6th period class so I can put the can in their room. I have changed my idea about the ice cream I will buy little cups for cheaper it will also be easier to hand out in the end. I am starting to make flyers and hopefully will be able to put them around the school.

I am still deciding on a reward for the class that raises the most money. I have e-mailed the teachers who have a 6th period class to make sure it was ok that I put cans in their rooms. I am still collecting cans I might change it to not just pringle cans but maybe old coffee cans.

My partner, Kabe, and I have a plan to do a fundraiser for one of the nearby foster homes. We have made contact with Debra corn foster care. The seem interested in getting involved and helping us. We plan to get the elementary involved too. We can't decide if we want to do the fundraiser during a football game or during the week.

My partner and I had a meeting with Debra Foster care.They told us that they didn't really need help at the moment, so they gave us the email to InAPinchMarion.We plan to email them and see if we can do a clothes drive for them. We hope that we can also get a meeting with them to talk more.

This week we have contacted all of the people we needed to, and are waiting on a reply. We have also gotten all of the boxes we need to start our project. We are planning to print out all of our flyers and begin putting them up next week. We will also start putting boxes at all of the businesses, and hoping to begin our project fully next week.

This week we posted flyers around the school, created social media pages, and shared online to get our project out there. We plan to make an announcement next week to the students, and will begin checking boxes at our drop off locations. We will also hopefully make an announcement to the Jr High students about writing letters.
