PITCH PERFECT VOLUNTEER COACH (ONE-DAY)

“Pitch Perfect” is an opportunity for adult volunteers to work alongside our high school Dragon Fellows. In the Fellowship Program, student teams have 6 months to design and launch a service project with up to $5,000 in seed funding. At the end of our program, teams present the results of their service project to a panel of judges at a closing ceremony. The top three projects will advance to our annual Dragon Challenge Gala for the opportunity to double their funding. At Pitch Perfect, Dragon Fellows practice their presentations with our volunteers in a open coaching setting. This is their first chance to pitch their work to a new audience and receive honest feedback.
