My Advocacy statement:
I feel reading is so important;
so, let’s keep all 4th grade
students at MLS reading over
vacations.

My Plan:
Contact school and get
permission.
Contact book stores and all local
businesses.
Create and print many advocacy
letters to distribute in town.
Make posters and fliers
advocating what I wanted.

Set a date and time and place for
raffle.
Use all proceeds towards new
books.

I visited all businesses in town
seeking donations.

I feel it is so important to keep children
reading over vacations.
They keep their skills up.
They enter a whole new world
when they read.
It may even boost their
confidence.

I patiently waited:
I received two calls on the first nite. I
was very excited-I was on my way to
making a difference.
![Page 12: HUS 325 Professor Patricia Clark Kimberly McLaughlin](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042607/55a60e191a28abd5418b45cf/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Those were the only two calls I
received.
I was pretty bummed.

But that didn’t stop
me- I worked even
harder.

I even called the
bookstores again.
They never returned my call.

Even though my project failed I did
learn one thing about myself; that is,
I can advocate for a very worthy
cause and feel great about it. I’m
painfully shy; but, I grew a lot from
doing this project.
