Challenge & Selection

For this kind of project that was with the purpose of helping others with our team, my team

and I had to choose a community to figure out their needs and help them obtain one of them.

We chose a community that had the mission of helping young adults and teenagers in

vulnerable situations to find education for having better opportunities in the world. So to be

able to present our project in front of the jury of our program and have an opportunity in

financing it, we used the storytelling technique, where the people present could be more

empathic about our project with the help of the technique so we could make them understand

the importance that this help would bring to the people in need in our community.

Application

For the application, we used all the information that we had gathered before with the help of

interviews and surveys to previous students of the program in our association. Thanks to that

information, we were able to create a story using the storytelling technique where one of the

students was the main character and she was narrating her story around our project and the

importance of it, so the people that would hear it, could feel it more personal and felt more

emphatic to it. While narrating the story, we explained all about the before and after for the

students or people that attend the project and get educated from it. Because most of them got

better jobs after they were able to attend this organization and not only learned formal

education, but also learned about good habits and things to do to get better their life like taking

care of themselves. With this kind of form, we were able to create a story were the people that

heard it were so engaged with it that after it, they all listened to the exact details of our project

with so much attention and were intrigued by it.

Insight and Approach

At last, we were able to actually approach the jury in a better way so they gave us a lot of tips

to make our project so much better, and because we actually got all of the resources by free,

we were able to finance our project without their help.
