Look out for the exciting new projects SoACT is planning on pursuing this year!
MARKKULA PARTNERSHIP |
As a club, our goal is to expand from fundraising to impacting change within our local communities. In the past year. In order to do this, we have created a partnership with the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics as well as the Silicon Valley Council for Nonprofits. After recent studies that demonstrate a cursory lack of diversity in nonprofits, we will expand beyond the current research and address the causes behind the lack of diversity. With the Markkula Center’s resources and educators who can help guide a research plan, we have planned a curriculum that will allow us to dig deeper into the cursory research.
Our partnership with the Silicon Valley Council for Nonprofits will ensure that we have a method of accessing new data through the network of this council. It will also provide a venue for the targeted audience of this information as we also hope to input possible solutions in the conclusion of our research. We will present all the information and implementation strategies at a summit hosted by the three organizations. Joining this club will not only give you the opportunity to engage first hand in ground breaking research but will also allow you to present these results at an influential summit with the parties involved. |
