My experience has been great so far and I really look forward to the rest of the summer. I honestly appreciate the leniency in things such as dress code or being able to work from home on certain days. I still need to get ready and leave as if I was going to the office and i\u2019ll even work in the same building. I\u2019m just more productive when I act like i\u2019m heading to work, I would utilize working in my pajamas if I could still be as productive at home. It is nice to know I can walk to a coffee shop or somewhere else to change it up on certain days of the week. I have confirmed to myself that as much as I like structure to an extent I would much rather prefer more leniency. <\/span><\/p>\n

I will be working with Detroit Food Academy (DFA) which is actually an organization that I was in all throughout high school. Detroit Food Academy is a nonprofit that teaches leadership through cooking and entrepreneurship throughout many middle and high schools across the city. You learn some of the necessary cooking skills such as using knives and they focus more on cooking healthier meals. You learn about issues with food injustice (e.g. food deserts). Students get to make their own product to sell and learn about food entrepreneurship. When teaching about food businesses DFA focuses on the triple bottom line: People, Planet, Profit. The triple bottom line is a way to run a business that focuses on the importance on how people and the environment are impacted, profit alone is not the main priority. I hope that made sense.<\/span><\/p>\n

I will mostly be working on the newsletter, submitting surveys an attendance, and the living wall. The living wall is a daily poster board that is reflects each day so it will have pictures and other major things that happened, it\u2019s very crafty but I will not work on that daily until July once the summer program starts. It is something that they did not do while I was in the program so it is completely new for me. For the past week I have been working on researching how other nonprofits write their newsletters (which I will eventually write DFA\u2019s newsletter) and submitting end of year surveys. I like it for now but I am looking forward to when the summer leadership program starts because I will get the chance to move around more. <\/span><\/p>\n
