Summer Mentorship Component

1.) Red Cross MentorshipSummer Log

2.) Contact name: Martin Villapudua
     Contact number: 9099733293

3.) What questions were raised because of the 10 hours of experience? List them.

  • How effective are the coupons when it comes to bringing in new donors?
  • When it comes to rewards, how do people become eligible for the bigger rewards?
4.) What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? why?
       Coming up with new ways to promote donating is not easy. you have to know what the people will like and what will not only grab their attention, but keep it as well. Also, some people are kind enough that they don't care about the rewards, they just want to help others. It shows there are good people out there

5.) What is your senior topic going to be? How did what you did help you choose your topic? Please explain. 
       With the 10 hours i did, it made me rethink and i don't think i want to keep my topic as marketing. Also, my mentor got promoted and now does something completely different at the red cross. I want to see if i can get a new mentor that has to deal with eating disorders because i had been wanting something that dealt with nutrition. I focused my topic more on eating disorders because that's something I'm interested in. If i can find a new mentor on time, then I will change my topic, if not i'll just stay at the Red Cross and see what i can do with my mentor and base my project off that.
