AB Team--

A lot has happened since we last spoke--for example, it is rumored that Kylie and Travis scott got engaged at the superbowl. Needless to say, it is a constantly evolving world and we must prepare.

Below are the the three main ongoing efforts for AB for the remainder of ths year--for next tuesday's meeting, please consider which of the three most interest you; please come prepared with questions and ideas. Watch out for a quick follow up survey

Given the breadth of items to discuss, we will do an in-person meeting with food. Location TBD but assume midtown (close to all major subway lines) 8PM FEB 12. Try your best to make it+assume this won't happen that often.



ITEMDescriptionDetails/open questions
Summer Internship Prep+PlacementGuide students in job placement process Process spans resume building/job selection/interview prep.Likely will begin as 1:1 (i.e assigned to one student); will be important to build contacts of business owner in wburg/bedstuy area.
CrowdfundingRaise money for ongoing school needs Will need to jumpstart campaign with initial funding target; ultimately need to gain buy-in from other school stakeholders (teachers, board, community members etc); as starting point use template from past successes m brown+remi
Spring TriviaYearly trivia eventNeed to assess what to change from last year to increase $ raised (venue location+deal format, ticket pricing, event planning etc)

Finally, here are three smaller events which either require some (or no) planning

- Community Service/Winter Cleanup: School cleaning, painting, etc. (Date TBD)
Come in during a friday (or weekday) to help revitalize the school and potentially introduce a new group of people to the school and its mission (maybe your work friends or your actual friends!)

- Career Fair (Fri 4/12/19)
Come in during the day to present on what you do for a living, answer student questions etc. Dazzle students with your powerpoint skills.

- Ribbon Cutting Event: Wed. 3/27/19
Attend to meet other members of the unity network.

Looking forward to seeing everyone today! I have a ton of snacks and drink (all the La Croix!!!) at my office so we should be good. 

I'll be picking you up from the lobby since it's after-hours. You can come anytime from 7pm - on. Please try to come 10 mins before the meeting so we can get settled and start on time!

Give me a text or call when you arrive (347-466-2428)
