Task 1
Hoops for Hope
This idea proposes a three-on-three basketball competition to support the Down Syndrome Association. The plan has the potential to generate a large sum of money and satisfies all four "must" goals. The money raised will come from the admission fee and the sale of commemorative T-shirts. The winning teams will receive gift baskets made up of contributions from neighborhood shops and eateries. Every project team member will have the chance to participate in and learn about project management during the event, which will take place at the university's recreational facility. The approach, however, falls short of achieving all five "want" goals. Regarding the "want" objectives, the Hoops for Hope project proposal can earn more than $500 for a charity, increase public awareness of the charity, and provide a resume-worthy experience for students. However, the project proposal may not be featured on local TV news and may not be as fun as the other project proposals.
Raffle for Life
The American Cancer Society will get funding from selling lottery tickets under the second plan, Lottery for Life. Each team member is expected to sell 50 raffle tickets for $3 each. The winning ticket has $300 in value. The plan has the potential to generate a large sum of money and satisfies all four "must" goals. The approach, however, falls short of achieving all five "want" goals. For the "want" objectives, the Raffle for Life project can raise more than $500 for a charity, give students resume-worthy experience, and raise charity awareness. The project proposal may not be on local TV news or as enjoyable as the others.
Hold'em for Hunger
This proposal entails setting up a Texas Hold'em poker event at a dining hall on campus. With a $15 buy-in charge, the admission price is $20. Prizes include tickets to men's and women's basketball games and gift cards to a major department shop. The plan has the potential to generate a large sum of money and satisfies all four "must" goals. The idea falls short of achieving all five "want" goals. While the Hold'em proposal can raise more than $500 for a good cause, it might only do a little to raise the charity's profile or provide students with the experience they can put on their resumes. Although it could be enjoyable, it is unlikely to be covered by the local TV news.
Build Your Own Box
This proposal seeks to increase public awareness of people without homes. For a $10 donation, students may take part in creating and spending the night in a cardboard city on the campus quad. Local hardware stores and recycling facilities will supply the building supplies. At midnight, the team will serve all participants with hot soup. The local homeless shelter will get the proceeds. The plan satisfies all four "must" goals, can increase charity awareness, and provide students with an experience that looks good on their resumes. Build Your Own Box can raise over $500 for the local homeless shelter, meeting the "want" objectives. The project's imaginative approach to raising awareness of homelessness may garner support from the university and beyond.
