1. Record Your Team’s Experiences
Not only is recording your team’s activity as you go through the Lead4Change student leadership program useful for submitting to the Challenge competition, it’s also a nice gift to have for looking back to see how leadership developed in you and your team.
2. Impact Someone Else’s Life
Having trouble choosing a charity to help? Here’s a handy guide that will show you what look for when deciding. While world hunger is a big issue, hunger also affects each and everyone’s local communities as well. By helping a local charity, you will be able to witness the impact your team has immediately.
3. Tell Others About Your Experience
Think about when you first learned about the Lead4Change student leadership program. Sounded like an amazing opportunity right? Now you’re involved and making big things happen. Think about all of the other teachers, students and schools that can help. Writing a press release that can be picked up by your local news organizations is a great way to tell others in your community about the positive impact that happens when you take people with you on your path to leadership.
