The PLCPA is requesting proposals that inform and persuade them to sponsor a worthy Grassroot Volunteer Project.

Group 1 PAPER2_First Draft In our primary research of Student Programming Board (SPB) organization, we found out that the organization provides various opportunities to experience new campus life. The main purpose of arranging activities and events is to provide sufficient service for all university students. Many events aim

The group gives full access to all university students who are attending the Metropolitan Campus of Fairleigh Dickinson University during the events and activities. They give social and emotional support for all students publicly and privately to help student focus more in their academic matters. Through their various members and committees, SPB gives social and recreational programs, coordinated at making leisure time activity and balancing studies with social activities. The organization consists of few volunteers students. In our interview with the chief committee member of organization Ms. Victoria, we asked her: What kind of activities they have been doing from past few years? What are their future plans? On which FDU campuses they are working at. How successful were the past events? Average number of students who have attended their events. What are their achievements? The team is expecting to cooperate with the Student Programming Board, a nonprofit organization being managed by its members. The idea that we are collaborating with this organization is one time event. It would be cultural event and it would be held on the Welcome Week after student orientation. The Welcome Week is an event to encourage PLCPA’s students to explore places in the state to visit, eat and have fun. The primary reason for cooperation with SPB organization is to find out if this organization is being successfully run by students and they hold similar activities and trips for FDU students. Students would have a better time as they get to explore the area around them. Therefore, Student Programming Board involves students with different kinds of activities. They take trips to nearby cities and neighboring states. Also, guiding tours activities are a major aspect they focus on providing. They anticipate in making tours for new students around the campus to introduce them to the neighborhood. These tours are helpful
- 4. for students because they would be more familiar with the new area. They would locate the shops, transportations stations and malls that are around the campus. They would be able to move around the city easily because of the tours given. More importantly, they hold many major events in and off campus for all university students and guests. They hold audience up to 300 students depending on the event. These programs tend to ease students’ lives around Fairleigh Dickinson University. · The plan of this cultural event is to introduce the new students to their new cultural life. · We are planning to organize this event in the Multipurpose Room at Students Union Building-SUB and we will have five organizers. · Faculty members from different departments will be welcome to attend this event. · Our plan to serve food and refreshments in the event for guests. · We will do some promotions before our event. In our interview with the chief committee member of organization Ms. Victoria, we asked her: Meeting What kind of activities they have been doing from past few years? · The first week (welcome week), trips to many places in the state or out the state, give programs for students about FDU events. What are their future plans? On which FDU campuses they are working at. · They have been working at metropolitan campus only for fifteen years. How successful were the past events? Average number of students who have attended their events. · Depend on the event, up to 1500 students What are their achievements? Email: You spoke with Victoria Woolfolk on Tuesday. The
