Entry #2

My 20% Project is going to be to fundraise money to donate to Inn Vision homeless shelter, and my goal is to raise at least $400. I am going to create a slideshow including a bunch of pictures and videos I have recorded throughout this experience. People should care about this project because not only am I trying to make a difference in the community, but this may also inspire others to help out their community as well. I care about this project because I want to find a way to help those less fortunate than I am. Between now and the beginning of May, I'll stay busy in class during 20% project time by editing my pictures and videos and collecting and counting up my earnings thus far. Between now and the beginning of May, I'll stay busy on my 20% project out of class by actually fundraising the money.

I am pretty confident in my Pitch Presentation just because this is a cause i am very passionate about, and I'm not really that nervous about presenting it.

Entry #1

So far, I really am enjoying this 20% project. I like how it is so open, meaning I won't have to follow too many rules. I like that I get to do what I want to do. As of right now, my project is going to be to try to fund raise a good amount of money to donate to a shelter that i am very fond of, called InnVision shelter. I volunteered at Innvision once, and I really enjoyed it. My sister also volunteers there. In fact, she has a club at school called the InnVision club. I was thinking that maybe i could work with her club to try to raise money to support the shelter, because 100% of their donations go into the shelter itself. My goal is try to raise at least $300, and I know that is a real challenge. I hope this project also inspires other people to help out in the community as well. I feel that by doing this project, I am, like the blog title says, lending a hand.
