Project feedback
I would be honored to work with your company on this project. I was impressed by Vivian's initiative. Because she was the one who first exposed me to the fact that one's love is vast. What she is doing is for the benefit of more women's health. It made me reflect on whether I have ever thought of doing something for this community. Apart from that, I also realized the importance of teamwork. As well as practical exposure to how to run a team effectively. Most importantly, I gained a deep understanding of the non-profit organization and the concept of improving women's health through food that the organization promotes. I will try to practice this concept in my daily life. And I will pay more attention to similar non-profit organizations in my future life.

Social Media for Benessere North

The main goal for the project is to develop and implement a social media strategy to continue to build an audience and email list for Benessere North, a nonprofit that helps women with chronic health conditions to optimize their health and often reverse chronic diseases through transitioning their nutrition. This will involve several different steps for the students, including: - Developing a content calendar and strategy for social media platforms - especially building a YouTube presence. - Creating engaging and informative content related to plant-based nutrition and chronic health conditions. - Editing videos I create - some on my own and others stemming from scripts the students develop - to post as reels on IT and FB, and shorts on YouTube etc. - Analyzing the effectiveness of the social media strategy and making adjustments as needed.
