The QC Caring Assignment
As part of our Community Campaign, we challenged 50 young adults to spark a movement of caring here in the QC.
The assignment? These emerging leaders will grow and multiply the impact of $100 in a project of their creation and invest it to improve the lives of people in our community.
Thanks to the help of our partners and friends, this effort truly represents our community coming together as one — the young adults participating in The QC Caring Assignment represent St. Ambrose University, Augustana College, Blackhawk College, Scott Community College, Western Illinois University, Heat & Frost Insulators Local 81, IBEW Local 145, Assumption High School, Pleasant Valley High School, and United Township High School.
Want to follow the QC Caring Assignment? These young leaders are sharing their journeys on social media, under the hashtag #MakeCaringFamous. You can help them out by sharing their stories, and even donating to their project. Together, we can and we will #MakeCaringFamous.
The Caring Assignment students and young professionals have been hard at work multiplying their $100 investment to create positive change in the lives of numerous Quad Citizens.
