Competition Brief
ProX is a Real World Learning initiative providing summer professional experiences for high school students.
About
My employer is Dr. Edwards. She helped the me and the other interns answer questions, take tours, and talk to important people. She works with the mayor and steps in when he is gone.
Problem
The problem is: How might we make Wyandotte County a place where the younger generations will want to live and raise their families? There are not enough places to go and to be outside.
Solution
My solution to the problem is to create a walking path. This will be a free place for the community to get outside and have fun.
Audience | Target Market
The people that are most affected by this problem is the residents of Wyandotte County. They want the best for their children and a place for them to be safe.
Learning Outcomes | Community Impact
It will help raise money for other business, get people outside, and help the community get together.
Next Steps
For next steps, we are going to need funding to make it possible. We are also going to need companies and the community's support.
Reflection | Other Info
I have a new perspective on the community, how it is ran, and what people need the most.
Resource | Support Needs
We are not currently accepting contributions from our voters. This pitch is part of the ProX competition for $5,000. I will use the funding for parks, benches, picnic tables, trash/recycling bins, and landscaping.

This was a fantastic pitch! You showed how informed you are about the market space you are entering by understanding and adding in the gamification that comes with your mascot.

Your video is grate and shows how much work you have put in to a Cotten candy business! I did get lost when reading the written submission as it covers skin care products and not cotton candy. This discrepancy made the pitch unclear but a simple update and clarification would get you back on track in no time.
