This document summarizes volunteer opportunities for corporate partners to engage with UCAN, a nonprofit that serves disadvantaged youth. It outlines programs for career development training, professional mentoring, exposure outings, and staff training. Partners are asked to consider hosting events at their locations to provide workshops, presentations, and tours for youth and staff. The document provides details on commitment levels and confirms some initial activities planned with current partner Wrigley. It closes by thanking partners for helping UCAN in its mission through various forms of support.
El documento lista los nombres científicos y comunes de varios árboles, incluyendo especies como el acacia, cedro, olivo, chopo, ciruelo, alcornoque y sauce.
The document provides information about the Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP), which is funded by the Corporation for National and Community Service and connects retired volunteers with nonprofit organizations. RSVP volunteers provide services like tutoring, administrative assistance, and environmental projects. The document also outlines the application process for nonprofit organizations to become RSVP partner sites and receive pre-screened retired volunteers.
The Youth Ambassadors program selects motivated young adults ages 15 and older to represent the Chicagoland Institute for Transforming Youth (CITY) initiative. [1] Ambassadors receive training to share their personal stories and how CITY has impacted their lives in speeches up to 3.5 minutes at events. [2] They are expected to attend events professionally, greet guests, and promote CITY. [3] In return, ambassadors gain public speaking, networking and business skills training along with reimbursements.

Alcohols are useful solvents in cosmetics. They can bond with both water and oils due to their hydroxyl (-OH) group. Common alcohols used in cosmetics include ethanol, methanol, glycerol, propanol, and cetyl alcohol. Alcohols dissolve active ingredients that do not dissolve in water alone. Smaller alcohols can be used to create emulsions and prevent oil and water from separating. Glycerol in particular is useful for dissolving natural oils in skin creams due to its three hydroxyl groups.
This document describes organic acids, including their properties, examples, and reactions. Key points are:
1) Organic acids are weak acids that contain carbon and hydrogen. Common examples include ethanoic, methanoic, lactic, and citric acids.
2) Organic acids are miscible in water when small, but larger ones are only soluble in organic solvents. They are liquids at room temperature and have higher boiling points than alkanes.
3) Organic acids form hydrogen bonds, giving them higher boiling points than alkanes. This allows small ones to dissolve in water and larger ones in organic solvents.
The document discusses electroplating, which involves using electrolysis to coat a thin layer of one metal onto another. It explains that electroplating can be used to protect against corrosion or improve appearance. It then provides details on the electroplating process, where the metal to be plated is the cathode and connects to the negative terminal, while the metal used for plating is the anode and connects to the positive terminal. Ions of the anode metal dissolve and deposit onto the cathode. Copper plating of other metals like copper is provided as an example.
This document discusses soaps, detergents, and their production. Soaps are made through saponification of fats and oils with alkalis or through neutralization of fatty acids with sodium hydroxide. Detergents are surfactants that lower surface tension to remove dirt by disrupting water droplets. Modern detergents are biodegradable and can be used at lower temperatures, making them more environmentally friendly than early detergents. However, some people are allergic to enzymes in biological detergents.
Esters are produced from a reaction between an organic acid and an alcohol, with water as a byproduct. Natural esters include fats, oils, and aromas in fruits. Man-made esters are now commonly produced industrially for uses such as perfumes and flavors. Esters have properties including volatility, solubility in organic solvents but not water, and high melting points for large esters like fats. They are used in applications such as solvents, cosmetics, flavors, and fragrances due to these properties. Esters can be prepared through the reaction of a carboxylic acid and alcohol with an acid catalyst and heat.
This document discusses different types of cells and batteries. It describes how batteries were invented by Alessandro Volta in 1799 and how they work by producing electricity through a chemical reaction between two different metals. It distinguishes between primary batteries, which cannot be recharged, and secondary batteries, which can be recharged. The document also discusses dry cells versus wet cells, battery safety issues like explosions, and environmental concerns related to battery production, use, and disposal.

2. Ho imparato come si esegue il tuffo di testa, quello bomba, quello a candela e quello a capriola
3. Ho imparato a nuotare nei vari stili come: lo stile libero, lo stile dorso, lo stile rana, lo stile delfino. Infatti il nuoto è uno sport completo perché sviluppo tutti i muscoli soprattutto quelli delle spalle. Stile dorso Stile libero Stile rana
4. Il mio istruttore Carmine è alto, con gli occhi marroni e la sua specialità e quella di farci divertire con i tubi e le tavolette
5. Purtroppo per frequentare il nuoto due volte a settimana con il mio migliore amico Aldo devo organizzarmi con lo studio e i compiti per non rischiare di avere brutti voti.
6. Quest’ anno sono diventato un idolo perché ho vinto tre gare dopo tanti mesi di fatica.
7. Oltre che in piscina, pratico il nuoto anche al mare, dall’ età di tre anni. Qui utilizzo le pinne, la maschera o gli occhialini. Indosso sempre la mia tuta da sommozzatore , perché vado con mio padre a prendere qualche frutto di mare che poi utilizziamo per preparare un pranzo di famiglia alla sera
