CivicLex signed on to work with Dr. Kimberly Stoltzfus and her class in UK’s Lewis Honors College this week. The class, Applying Real World Project Management in Service to a Nonprofit, will pair small groups of students with CivicLex, On the Move Art Studio, and Girls on the Run to design and implement capacity-building projects for the organizations.
To add to the challenge and to simulate real-world project budgeting, the students will only have $100 to work with, which they’ll have to raise themselves during the semester. We’ll hear from our student team on Tuesday. From there, we’ll set up a first meeting, plan time for the students to observe the CivicLex office and help with a few events, and after a few weeks, we’ll hear their project proposals.
We’re excited to be part of this program and can’t wait to hear the student’s ideas!
