Since the class is coming to an end very soon, we asked our students and our professor Dr. Lora Warner about the class and how it has made an impact on them!
Congratulations to Family Services of NEW on receiving our $10,000 grant. At the beginning of this week, we held our event to announce and award the recipient of our grant. We had a great turnout of other students, faculty and staff members, along with some community members. Our decision was hard, but with a lot of thinking and discussing, our class was able to come to an agreement and do what we have been waiting for all semester! The journey throughout the semester was enjoyable, challenging at times, and a great learning experience. This class provided a unique opportunity for us to learn in a different way and it gave us many memories that we can appreciate when looking back on our college experience. Thanks to the Learning by Giving Foundation, UWGB, Dr. Warner, and anyone else who made this possible. Thank you for following along with us this semester!
Last week after much discussion, our class identified four problem areas in our community. These four problem areas included: Suicide Prevention, Sex Education, Early Childhood Development, and Human Trafficking. We then formed groups and interviewed individuals in the community who were well versed on our issues of choice, and did additional research to create a paper and presentation for our class. However, we had a late start to this week due to snow and ice storms here in Wisconsin, but our Strategic Philanthropy class really got the “snow ball” rolling and we were able to present our topics. After having listened to all four amazing and informative presentations, our class will reflect on the topics and come to a decision on our final topic area next class period.Check back for pictures and information on our class presentations!
Our class is excited to announce that we have chosen the topic of human trafficking! Our outcome goal is to “Educate individuals at risk of human trafficking and/or those who encounter or work with them about how to recognize and prevent human trafficking.” Our request for proposal has been written and was issued out on March 10 th , 2018. We cannot wait to see what the applicant organizations have to offer. Please check out our request for proposal that has been posted here on our blog.
