Whoo, thank you so much to everyone who turned up! Here is what we discussed during our first meeting today.
1. What is UNICEF anyways? Click here. Oh, and scroll down to the bottom of the page to watch an amazing video!
2. Our meetings will take place every Monday at lunch. The location will go back and forth between the theater and Mr. McKee's room (Room 516). As you can see, our first meeting took place in the theater; which means, next week's meeting will be in Mr. McKee's room!
If we do have meetings in the theater, absolutely NO eating or drinking is allowed!
3. The 2013-2014 presiding officers are Ceridwen (Ceri) Driskill, Eugenia Lee, and Chaereen Pak. We have three officer positions available this year: Director of Financial Planning and Analysis (A.K.A. treasurer), Director of Communications and Public Relations, and Director of Broadcast and Non-Profit Journalism. Download the application here (it's under Resources). Interviews will be held this Friday (Sept. 13th [ha ha]) after school in Mr. McKee's room. You MUST bring the filled-out application to your interview. More information about the interviews will be announced later on this week.
4. Hours this year will consist of a minimum of twenty hours per semester. Don't worry, it isn't going to be as hard as it sounds. We have some awesome fundraisers coming up and we'll be giving out lots of hours! But, if you are interested in receiving a PVSA certification (for more information, click here and here), the minimum will be fifty hours per semester. To download the hour sheet, click here.
We have also verified with Ms. Henry, that you are able to overlap your UNICEF and CSF/NHS hours. What does this mean? Let's say you volunteered at the public library for three hours. You can use those three for both your UNICEF and CSF/NHS hour sheets; you don't have to get three separate hours for UNICEF and another three hours for CSF/NHS.
5. Our main goal this year is to fundraise $50 per month! LET'S DO THIS!
6. If you have any questions or concerns, contact us through this email: valenciaUNICEF@gmail.com. Or, add us on Facebook and contact us (Eugenia Lee, Ceridwen Driskill, Chaereen Pak).
7. If you did not receive an email from us today (valenciaUNICEF@gmail.com), please email us your address as soon as possible so that we can add you to our mailing list!
We hope to see more members show up as more events and community service opportunities will slowly be introduced! See you all next week.
