We had the awesome privilege of having Ms.Karen Hatcher, Regional Director of the Jefferson Award Student In Action Program, visit with our Student Leadership Team at Benedictine Academy. The main topic of discussion was how to write an effective Power Letter. Our students learned the finer points of communication through the art of the written word:
It is of critical importance to Think BIG - The Power of an Idea and be passionate.
- Grasp the reader's attention in the first paragraph.
- The ASK
- The details and key supporters
- Thank You and Next Step
Empowered with this valuable knowledge, they went to work to ask for support of their upcoming CPR training program, Child Slavery in the Chocolate Industry, and Anti-Bullying Program. Together, with people who believe in the human dignity of each person, we can and are doing something to make our world a better place.
