Juliana Long Capstone

For my senior year capstone project, I chose to expand and improve our school’s community involvement club after being appointed as the leader of the club by its previous leaders. One of my core philosophies as a person is that if you have the resources to help others who need it, you must do so. I wanted to share the sentiment with my peers by upgrading the club’s activities, consistency, and overall impact on the community. I wanted to ensure that we were participating in activities that were truly helping others. Throughout the 2019-2020 school year, I developed new regular volunteer activities for students to participate in as well as scheduled monthly standalone events for us to help run. Running and developing CIC this year was a challenge but it taught me a lot about the importance of leadership and service. To digitize my capstone, I composed a timeline of the 9-month long project from the beginning of the school year in September to May 2020.
