The End

         These past few weeks were the most frustrating time of my life. I thought because we are going to donate money to an organization is was going to be easy.The number one thing I had learn was teamwork is key for success. Since I play varsity Basketball, I Though I had teamwork;however, I was wrong. I still need alot to learn about teamwork.

The Double Q's

Quantitative Analysis
Qualitative Analysis

Last week you needed to find an organization and their 990 forms. This week we learn the double Q's. Which are Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis. Qualitative Analysis is to see the potential of a company/organization. Quantitative Analysis are the number of a company/organization. These two word are important to look for in an investment.

Look,research, and pick

This week you needed to pick an organization that is worth donating to(Time or Money). Please do your research because if you don't you are going to waste your money on an organization that is going to shut down in a year. I suggest you look for their 990 form the most recent one. If the company doesn't have one then don't pick it. In order to find their 990 form there are two ways. 1. Call the company and ask them to email it to you. Or look online by their website or go to http://www.guidestar.org. For guidestar you need to make an account. It is simple they ask you email, nam and a password, it should take about 1 min at most.

The Paper Bag

            In this activity my group and I were each given a paper bag and asked to put 3 things that had meaning to us.  This was surprisingly more difficult than it seemed. 

1)Mp3-My mp3 is like a stressball. When I have alot on my mind and I don't want to hear anyone else. I just simply put in my earphones and play some music. Also it helps me focus on a task when I can cancel-out the outside world, but my music.












2)bracelet- The bracelet I put in the bag is speacial to me because it symbolize how much my older brother cares about me. He made it by himself and the best part about it is, its a one of kind. This is one of the most important item I hold dear to.
