2017 "Changemakers" Leadership Summit
On May 2, 2017, Partnerships Make A Difference and the "Growing Together" Service-Learning Network, will host the Network’s 4th annual "Changemakers" Leadership Summit. We are pleased to announce that American Electric Power has already committed their support as a "Changemaker" sponsor.
At this year’s Summit, teams of students, teachers, and community agency personnel will again engage in team-building, collaboration, and strategic planning activities. They will represent more than 50 urban, rural, and suburban schools in central Ohio (including Columbus City Schools), as well as more than 25 community agencies and organizations. Students in grades 3-12 will join their teachers and community partners in sharing the impact of their service-learning successes from this year and inspiring others to take future action around specific local and global issues. We expect a capacity crowd of 250 participants, and we look forward to providing them with a highly interactive and productive day. The "Changemakers" Leadership Summit will be held at Mid-Ohio Foodbank on May 2, 2017, 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Registration deadline is April 21, 2017.

"Changemakers" Leadership Summit Overview |
2017 "Changemakers" Leadership Summit |
|
Once again, the Growing Together Network "Changemakers" Leadership Summit (new name, same great event) at Mid-Ohio Foodbank will provide an opportunity for students, teachers and community agencies to shine. With the help of teachers, students will share the highlights of their service-learning accomplishments from the 2016-2017 school year and have a chance to inspire other students and teachers to become involved in their featured issue(s).
Prior to the event, each participating school should choose one (or two) high-quality service-learning projects to highlight from this year. Next, teachers and students should produce a tri-fold display describing the designated project (or schools may bring two display boards, if they prefer). The “Growing Together” Network will provide tri-fold boards as needed. Our Field Coordinators, Karen Patterson and Jane Hubbard, will contact school “building leaders” to provide helpful information re. what to include on the tri-fold. Just like last year, the Summit (previously titled the Service-Learning Leadership Summit and Year-End Celebration) will be a highly interactive, effective, and productive experience for our participants. It will be an exciting opportunity for students, teachers, and community agency representatives to share what they have learned and produced this year, and use their knowledge and passion to inspire other schools and organizations to become involved in similar efforts. |
