The week began with preparing a memo for a meeting with Mr. Mac, Chief Operating Officer, and the Market Directors. I met with them to discuss the continued use of a shared programming calendar. The meeting went well, and the team plans on using it in the future! At the same time, I have been tasked with creating flyers and marketing materials for recruitment measures. I feel pretty good about the initial rough drafts. On Tuesday, I had a working meeting with Ellen, the Philanthropy Coordinator. We discussed navigating social media posts regarding community partners such as ADAMH and Target Circle. Feel free to vote for our organization up until September 30th on the Target Circle App.

Wednesday was a great day. During our fellowship sessions, we heard from Dr. Tracy Najera, Executive Director of the Children Defense Fund Ohio, and Nick Jones, Director of Healthy Neighborhoods Healthy Families at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. We discussed difficult topics and received motivation to keep up the fight(non-profit work). During the afternoon, I collected content and hung out with students from our J Ashburn Jr. Site. I especially had a great time with the teens since I met them during our Denison University college tour.

Thursday was dedicated to learning labs with Christine Roberts, BGCA Senior Consultant. I enjoyed the sessions on Converting Supporters & Attendees into Donors and Leading Your RD Committee to Lead Your Board. Friday marks the last day of my summer classes! As a result, I will have a substantial workload removed to maximize my free time completing my fellowship tasks. By the way, I am projected to end the semester with a 3.85! Tonight, I will be collecting content for the Milo Grogan Boys & Girls Club Teen Night(5-8pm)! All 13-18 Students are welcomed to attend the event!
