This week’s project activity was much more creative than last week. Since my writing part was information for donation, I researched about CFRC and had a short call-interview with Danna Tirrell, the person in charge of the Christmas day dinner event.
To have clearer idea about what I was supposed to write, I asked her how the donation would be used. Since the donation part was my delegation and I thought giving more detailed information could encourage people to donate more actively, I tried to make the content be specific and effective by listing how the donation would be used for the event. According to the interview with Danna Tirrell, the donation would be used to buy basic materials needed for the event, such as silverware, turkeys, toys, and containers. At this point, I am not sure if I have to list all these information on the brochure due to space restraint. I will discuss about this issue with my group members in the next meeting. However, the information I got from the interview and research was very helpful to me to figure out how the text could be composed more effectively to draw readers’ attention and actual help.
Our group discussed about our brochure’s design. Patrick suggested several ideas for it, and all of our group members will keep discussing about it together to make it look more polished and effective.
