Super Challenge: Make Your Own Action!
Make Your Own Action!
Details: 20,000 points to the school with the best original action to promote ONE.
Deadline: Midnight PST on Sunday, March 1st, 2009
YES!!! It’s finally your big chance to gather hundreds of ONE’d pets in your school’s football stadium and arrange them into a giant ONE logo!!!
Okay so that might NOT be the best example of how to make your own action for this challenge. But you should think about combining some of the (non-pet-involving) actions from our action list in creative ways — and make sure you submit each piece separately, milk this challenge for all the points you can get.
Or you can really make your own action from scratch. Think about what’s missing from our list of actions, and come up with a great new way to promote ONE and/or raise awareness about ONE issues on your campus.
We’d especially love to see do-it-yourself actions that have a real, lasting impact — rooting your OCC program more firmly at your school so next year’s team will be even stronger than you are now.
You can also tap into great ONE resources, such as:
- The new Zimbabwe petition: it’s worth 500 points per signature, and you know how we love those petitions here at ONE. Think about creative, non-table-involving ways you might gather signatures.
- The ONE Sabbath sermon challenge: groups of faith make up an important component of ONE, but we haven’t ever connected them with OCC. If faith is important to you, your community and/or your campus, maybe you could help us out.
- Our transition document for the Obama Administration: we delivered this great document to the Obama Administration already, but maybe you can think of other ways to promote it.
And you have tons of tools, including our blogs, your local media, Facebook (Maisie loves Facebook!), our events tool, and lots more at your disposal.
For those of you in top 10 contention, this could be a test-drive for what will eventually be a much larger (and better-funded) project.
For those who attended the Power 100 Summit, this is an awesome opportunity to apply anything and everything you picked up, whether it came from our staff, a guest speaker, or one of your peers.
Get creative…and get your Game On!
