Final Thoughts

Now it is the end of the semester, and we are presenting our work to the Just Neighbors community on Monday. I am so excited to show them all that we've done, and I hope they can tell how much we have gotten out of our semester with them.

Working with a real organization, as compared to the traditional make up of PR Portfolio with a fictional organization, has made all the difference. There are real reasons for us to do our best, because we can see the direct results of our work and know we really are making a difference. On the flip side, there are real consequences if we do not, so I am proud to say that we have worked really hard this semester.

Getting to meet actual clients from Just Neighbors was also a great reward for this semester. It was great to see all that JN does for its clients. I will definitely miss working with them, and this semester has only furthered my interest in doing public relations work for non-profits.
