Well...this is going to be a short blog post. Due to the craziness of finals/Christmas I haven't really done a whole lot with EAG this week. The main thing that I have really started doing is drafting letters to send to these places I've been researching. Nothing too exciting. In some ways, writing letters to these places asking for donations is a lot harder than some might think. It's one's first impression to the company. Basically, if the letter sucks, then the company won't donate. But if the letter is both charming and professional at the time, it can garner a face-to-face meeting with the company, a donation, and quite possibly extended support for EAG. So really, it's a delicate job. Hopefully as an English major I'll be good at this. Good thing they have to go through Maggie first before I actually send them!
But things are finally starting to come together and becoming actualities, rather than just something in my head that I'm researching. Other than that...not much to report. Merry Christmas to all, and I'll see you all next year!
