As Head Chair of For All Mankind, a student- run nonprofit organization, from 2012-2013, I learned how to successfully run a nonprofit by effectively raising awareness and money for a given issue. After thoroughly researching various global issues, I, along with the FAM Board of Directors, decided to assist the work of The Water Project, which tackles health issues in poor communities in Africa by installing wells to provide clean water and proper sanitation. Being involved in the process of fundraising and educating my community about global issues has taught me values of altruism, integrity, and activism, while allowing me to make a difference in my school, my community, and the world. We organized restaurant fundraisers, a Goodwill Truck Drive, and an informational and entertaining benefit concert and sold bracelets to raise a total of $7,000 in one semester. I updated our Facebook and Tumblr with online fliers to promote our fundraisers, and designed an information sheet to distribute to potential sponsors.
