Project to identify potential causes for the skills gap and provide suggestions on what can be done to encourage the development and expansion of a skilled workforce in our area.

Project: Partner with Community Action to assist and promote building a new playground at the Community Kids Learning Center.
Members: Jake Hess, Dave Kipp, Jean Miller, Jolene Terrones, Shandra Thomas
Description: “Play it Forward” is a partnership with Community Action to assist and promote building a new playground at the Community Kids Learning Center. This will provide children with a safer, development-appropriate learning environment. Improvements to the facility will help Community Action integrate outdoor play with social skills, gross motor skills, and creative training. It may also increase the facility’s rating with the state and provide additional financial opportunities. Our team will obtain sponsors for materials and supplies, build bike barns and Plexiglas fence, organize a work day, and promote community involvement and knowledge of the project and organization. Our project will also demonstrate to the kids and their families a sense of commitment and community pride. This will offer a better-rounded social, physical, and gross motor educational project for years to come.

Description: Youth ROCK is a faith based organization that offers area youth the opportunity to discover Rock County and involve themselves in a leadership development program while completing community service projects throughout the Rock County area. Our team is assisting in securing additional sponsors for supplies, projects, and funds. This will enable the organization to attain their current goal of doubling their numbers and their commitment to community services they are able to provide. In increasing the network of resources, we are also laying the groundwork for the long-term goal of an additional week of leadership development. This will include leadership exercises with community mentoring for past participants prior to the week of work. The sense of accomplishment, self-discovery, and comradery will live with these youth, and support Rock County, for a lifetime.

Research shows that children, on average, lose one month of reading skills over the summer. A major contributing cause for this slide is that many children simply don’t have regular access to books during the summer months. As a result, when kids return to school in September, teachers find themselves re-teaching skills and concepts that students had mastered the previous spring. Our team partnered with Hedberg Public Library in order to help them expand their outreach efforts to students in the summer. Our project was to find and repurpose a vehicle into a bookmobile; the library would then sustain the project after our graduation. Research revealed that many cities use repurposed buses as their bookmobile vehicle of choice. However, we were able to get a decommissioned ambulance donated from the City of Janesville Fire Department at no cost. Our team worked to transform it with bookshelves and, with the help of Fetch Graphics and our sponsors, a wrap for the outside of the vehicle. We also coordinated a book drive to collect books for the project. After our presentation today, we will turn the bookmobile over to Hedberg Public Library. The Hedberg Public Library Bookmobile will be seen throughout Janesville in the coming months!

Remember when you were a kid celebrating your birthday? Can you imagine not being able to give a child or grandchild you love a birthday party due to financial or other hardships?
Volunteers and donors for the Janesville chapter of Box of Balloons, a Wisconsin-based 501(c)(3), help package a birthday party kit in a box catered to the wishes and desires of the birthday child. Inside the decorated box are tableware and cupcakes, party activities and favors for up to six children, decorations, candles, and a birthday gift.
Requests for birthday boxes come to Janesville Box of Balloons co-leaders from social workers at local schools and shelters. There is no direct contact with the child, and the child understands that the party and gift come from the parent(s) or caregiver(s).
Team Three-O-Five strives to assist Janesville Box of Balloons raise money, increase awareness, and expand its outreach so that more boxes can be filled for Rock County children in the future.
Our goals are to raise $5,000 to build 50 boxes and stabilize funding through local business support. Will you help Janesville Box of Balloons spread kindness like confetti?
Team Still Loading RC chose a project that helps the schools and the students within our Rock County communities. They chose three middle schools from Beloit, Janesville, and Milton, with the goal of taking an unused, outdated space and turning it into a space for struggling students to collect themselves emotionally in a calm and mentally stimulating environment, so they may return to their class with a positive and outlook re-energized. The group's mission statement reads: "To address and adjust unproductive strategies when working with struggling students by creating warm and welcoming areas that all students can use as a safe place to feel comfortable; focusing on restoration to aid in returning students to their regular learning environments."
Team L.I.T. is developing a parcel of land located in Beloit Township into a learning arboretum that will provide the residents of the Town of Beloit and neighboring communities a safe and aesthetically pleasing area in which to relax, as well as the opportunity to learn more about several species of trees which, when planted around the Township, will not only beautify their yards, but will help to further enhance the biodiversity of the tree species present in the Town's urban forest. Planting examples of these trees in the park area will give easy visual answers to the common questions: What will the type tree look like, and how big will that tree grow?
Team Rock 4 Change teamed up with the Janesville School District and the UW-Whitewater's Young Auditorium to keep the arts-integration team rolling. Rock 4 Change feels strongly about the continuing education of our youth and beyond, and how arts plays a part. the objective is to raise enough funds to be able to have a facilitator come for a week-long training, which could bring in more staff. Each staff takes what they learn and brings that back to their classrooms. Most of the classrooms are between 25 and 30 children. So this project will lead to the teaching of 75-120 students. Each of these students bring the fun to their peers. Ultimately reaching a student population that is immeasurable.
This team will be creating a partnership between students and the community by looking to improve the appeal of downtown Janesville, which in turn helps promote small businesses and community mindedness through the development of young people and their talents.
This project is to increase the well-being of the House of Mercy Shelter residents by fundraising for 28 new bed frames and mattress covers. It is their hope to also raise enough funds to support the purchase of 4 additional beds to ultimately increase availability at the shelter.
This team will be working with the staff and Board of the Milton Area Youth Center to establish financial sponsorships/long-term benefactors to ensure a long-lasting future for the organization. In addition to creating stable finances for the future, they plan to hold a single event fundraiser with hopes that it is sustainable as an annual event.
