Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

We want to be recognized in our community for the work that we are doing. We have a great story to tell and we want it to be picked up by media outlets. We need students to create press releases for us.

Students should be prepared to:

  • Help us make our story to something compelling and that people would be interested to read
  • Write up press releases around a couple of news-worthy stories
  • Identify media outlets that are most most likely to pick the story up
  • Send press releases and establish positive long term rapport with media contacts
  • Secure media exposure for our organization and build a relationship.
What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

The final deliverables should take the form of:

  • Press releases that are ready to go to media to be published
  • A list of media outlets that we can partner with along with contacts for future releases
  • Communication established with those media outlets and conversations promoting our press releases
