the project. General activities for this committee include
writing press releases and other materials, trying to place
stories with local print and TV media, making follow-up phone

Fundraising
Committee
(Rose McManus)
Responsible for raising all of the funds needed to build the
playground. Fundraising is broken up into three areas: Grassroots
efforts (i.e., house parties, flea markets, selling pickets/boards,
etc.), Corporations, and Foundations. People on this committee
should have great interpersonal skills, be persistent and
not take "no" for an answer. It's also helpful,
but not necessary, to be well connected in the community.

Volunteers
Committee
(Wendy Schwartz Barnett;
Orla
van den Muyzenberg-Hahn)
Recruits all of the volunteers for the day of the build. We
will need 1,000 volunteers over the 5-day build period: 150-200
on the weekdays, and 300-400 on the weekends. Volunteer committee
members will recruit from schools, corporations, local organizations,
neighbors, fraternities/sororities, service groups, etc. They
will also be responsible for receiving and organizing these
volunteers throughout the 5-day build. Organized and detail-oriented
people are great for this committee.
