Re-Stitching Our Plan

Hello All,

During this week we picked out the materials and colors of our first shirts, the ones we want to start with. This was one of the first steps of setting up our store, Vitam Dare. By creating a clothing store which gives most of its profits as donations to Hands On Nashville and gives one article of clothing for everyone bought to once again, Hands On Nashville we can attract a few colleges attention. The reason being that two sophomore girls have become entrepreneurs and created a business on a topic they’re passionate about while still incorporating service work to go with their love of helping others. If this kind of situation is put on a college application, it will help differentiate our applications from most all others students applying; therefore, we are more likely to get into that college, which is a bonus if it is our first choice.

This can help shape our life path because we can always refer back this experience and how we were about to problem solve new and uncertain situations. For example, when we were searching for a mentor we learned that not all people reply immediately to emails because they have their own schedules that do not coincide with ours. Because of this we are required to communicate through emails, this can cause information to be lost in transit. As sometimes one person has the information but cannot get ahold of this person, therefore, the other person must deliver the information.
