FINAL REFLECTION CITIZEN'S ENERGY FUNDRASIER 11/20/09

My goal was to be able to help families who had difficulties affording oil in the winter and when I found a organisation like Joe Kennedy's which is run completely off of donations I decided wanted to get my advisory together and save up as much money as possible by selling food. MY initiation goal was a 100$ before Jan. but we beat that goal within two weeks and then we made the goal 500$ before the end of the year but do to other organizations we'd like to donate to we decided to stop before Thanksgiving. So after weeks of selling donuts,candy,brownies, cookies and other good we raised around 250$ which was half my goal but still something to show and be proud of. We will send in this money which will be very rewarding for me and the advisory to know how great it feels to help out families indeed from freezing since this is such a big issue in the United States which seems it will be worse this year with domestic and foreign issues. It benefits everyone in different ways for us collecting the money and donating it, it feels great. For Citizen's Energy they are keeping the program going. Learning outcome goal 1 applies and was achieved for this because I learned new skills for collecting money I got over my shyness to go up to people and be able to persuade strangers to buy food items for a good cause. I also achieved learning outcome goal 6 because I engaged in a activity that was of global importance. Of course freezing is a global issue I will my advisory took it as local and national importance to help out people across America during the winter season.
