Update

In the past few weeks, I have been attempting to get in contact with various groups for co-sponsorship of our events. I sent emails to all the groups listed in the first post but have yet to hear back from any via email. However, a member of Tau Kappa Epsilon who did a service project with the Maasai last semester contacted me about possible co-sponsorship via the Facebook group I created regarding our project. In addition, Keith met with a member of The Community And Social Justice Coalition (CASJ) about possible co-sponsorship. We were also able to get in contact with a student who did the service project years ago who still has some beads that we can use to raise money for MAGSA-OUTREACH.

Another possibility I have been considering is asking my French teacher, Madame Breant, if she would be willing to perform at our event. She is from Cote D'Ivoire and sings about social injustice in Africa so hopefully she will be willing to help in some way.

Basing our plan on the checklist we got from the Community Service Center, the coming weeks will invovle:

• Develop a budget for the coming weeks
• Come up with a reasonable goal for fundraising
  
• Finalizing the date of the walk-a-thon (pending confirmation from Joseph, we are hoping for April 18th)
• Gather the materials we need to print out flyers and begin handing them out and posting them
• Secure co-sponsorship
  
• Secure a table so we can hand out information and attempt to raise money
• Finalize t-shirt order
