I have finally nailed down an idea about my project.
I knew going into this project that I wanted to raise money, maybe because it's because I'm a Finance and Accounting major, but something about raising money appeals to me. I like being able to measure the impact I will have.
After brainstorming for weeks, I have decided to pair with Courtney Bonner and hold a golf tournament.
We already have a contact at a golf course in Dallas, that is willing to work with us to hold the tournament at his course.
We plan on creating a how-to guide, of sorts, on how to hold a golf tournament fund raiser.
As of right now we are still trying to figure out what we want to put the money we raise towards. Our favorite idea is donating it back to the program. Specifically, creating a scholarship(s) for students to go to Scotland, since I have heard it is now a requirement.
Obviously the idea is still rough, but I am very confident and excited to really start working on the project. We are currently trying to come up with specific numbers, so we can set a goal on how much money we want to raise.
