This week I’m rallying the troops. If you would like to be involved in the Let’s Get Global pilot school program in your community, please send me an e-mail and I’ll send you some information. I’d like to know if your local high school would be willing to present the Gap Year option to its students. We are preparing a Volunteer Kit and we’d like to set up a Let’s Get Global After-School Club. We’ve set September as our goal of when we’d like to begin working with the schools. We’re working on a fun program for the after-school clubs with music, art, discussions, contests, etc.
In your e-mail, let me know where you are and send me any demographic information about your school. You don’t have to commit to anything until after you’ve read through our material.
On another note, I am very much a team player. I need to brainstorm, talk about plans, discuss how to organize things. I’m still looking for a face-to-face pal in DC who will work with me, on a volunteer basis, around three times a week. One of the things we’ll do is organize funding research so that down the line we can pay a qualified, experienced coordinator. I spent a day at the Foundation Center last week….here in DC. The research will take many hours. I’m thinking of subscribing so that a group of us can do the research using their data base on our own computers. Any takers?
