Week 9 was was spent mostly working on our annual impact report. I love this project, because it’s all about organization and creativity. On Tuesday I then go to accompany our program coordinator to a meeting with other Columbus nonprofits. This meeting was so interesting because I had the opportunity to learn more about the work of other nonprofits. They were all really  inspiring and passionate about the community. 

    On Wednesday I was finalizing a lot of projects, and gearing up for upcoming meetings next week. The research I’ve been compiling has been a lot of random notes , so it’s refreshing to see it all come together. Later in the afternoon worked on improving our social media platforms and calendar. 

      Thursday was spent organizing our warehouse. We got a shipment in of new food, and I got to learn how to operate a Pallet Jack; Definitely a random life skill.

When Friday rolled around I was given the task to create individual impact reports for our corporate sponsors. This seemed simple, but then I soon realized how much google documents and I despise each other. Very glad I completed the project before the weekend. I also handled deliveries, and updated  our upcoming calendar for the next two weeks. Like every week, week nine flew by. It’s crazy that just nine weeks ago Family Mentor Foundation was completely foreign to me. Now I feel as though it’s mission and staff are such a huge part of my life. I’m looking forward to continuing working with them after the fellowship period, and continuing to help feed kids!
