Independent Project #1:
I just currently made a reservation for the Mark Restaurant and Bar in Burien for the senior get together and they are really flexible with things. I reserved their banquet room which hold up to 40 people but if we feel too cramped or if more people show up, they will open the back of the restaurant for us. Space rental is free and we can decorate it anyway we like. Based on student interests, the theme will be Holiday casual/semi formal and we will be playing secret Santa. Someone from our class has already volunteered to be Santa and they will show up with all our gifts to pass out to everyone. The mentor for this project will be Mr. Shiroma.
Independent Project #2:
I'm still trying to find a good place to donate the collected stuff animals to. Right now it looks like it'll either be to SAFE, children's hospital or a shelter of some sort.
Following Project #1: Talent show
From the last time that I talked to Liz, it looks like the gym has been booked and sign up sheets are in the office. Try out dates have also been decided.

2nd Project Proposal
Executive Summary:
For my second leadership project, I will be putting together a stuff animal drive to give to kids in need or in want of a stuff animal. Doing this will not only help raise awareness within the school for children that may not be as lucky as us, but it also provide a direct way of positively changing the lives of these children. Not every child out in the world has a stuff animal to cuddle with in the cold or just something to play with when they are bored so the stuff animal drive will be a simple and cheap way to supply these kids with something they want. I want to conduct this project because i believe that every child should have happiness of some kind and giving them a stuff animal will be one of the easiest things we can to do give a bit of happiness to their lives. I believe its important as a leader to set an example of what can be accomplished when enough effort is put into it.
Need:
For those of you that have grown out of you old stuff animals, what will you be doing with them. Give them to siblings? what if you don't have any siblings? then you 'll throw them away? leave them sitting there collecting dust at you house? If you don't find anymore need of the stuff animal, then why not donate it to a child in need? That way the stuff animal that you used to love so much can now be in the hands of a new child that also loves it just as much. Much better then leaving it sitting at you house or being thrown away in the garbage right? After all, you don't need it anymore, so give it to a child that does. Change a child's life from just donating an old doll that you no longer need.
Objective:
When this project is over, I would hope that the people who donated feel this sense of fulfilment that they help a child out and I would hope for the children who received the stuff animals to feel a sense of happiness that there are people out there trying to help them out. I would hope that the children feel like they are loved by the world even though they might not be born as lucky as others.
Method:
The steps in achieving this project will be as follows:
1. Ask the school staff to see who has good idea's of where we should donate the collect stuff animals.
2. Spread the word to the school
3. Have a projected start and end date for the donation
4. Take pictures of some donors
5. Wrap up the stuff animals
6. Send them off to the kids.
Evaluation:
If possible, I will be keeping track of some specific stuff animal, take a picture of the stuff animal and its old owner, following it through the shipping process and once that stuff animal have been received by a child, i will ask that child how they feel about their new stuff animal. I will also take a picture of that child and the stuff animal and giving the picture back the the person who donated to see how they feel about that's child response upon receiving the new stuff animal. If both the donor and the child feels happy, then I know my project was a success.
Qualification:
This project will require someone that's a good communicator, organized, and patient, which i have all of the above characteristics so I will be a good person to lead this project. I also love to see people being helped and being happy so I would enjoy putting together this project very much.
Time Table:
This project will only take about 2 weeks to complete. Before I start spreading the word I would make sure that these stuff animals are going somewhere useful. Then I would allow 2 weeks for people to bring in their stuff animals.
Budget:
This project will require minimum to no cost since all the stuff animals will be donated by student of AHS. The only cost that might be needed are shipping cost which wouldn't be too much.
