    Introduction

    Rising child care costs are becoming a significant barrier towards bringing families out of

    poverty. These costs and the limited resources available to child care centers aimed towards

    serving this population, make it difficult for parents to elect gainful employment rather than to

    stay at home. How many of you think you could survive on a salary of $20,000 a year? In

    Gould et al.’s (2015) issue brief on the availability of high quality child care for working

    families, it was found that for a family of four living in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex,

    monthly child care costs can average close to $835, roughly 16% of a family’s income for

    making at least $60,000/year. With the current “federal minimum wage set at $7.25”, if both

    parents work full-time for 52 weeks a year, their annual wages would total to $30,160. At this

    level of income child care costs increase to roughly 33% of their total income leaving $20,140

    for housing, food, transportation, healthcare, taxes, and other necessities (EPI, 2015). The cost

    benefit ratio of working versus staying home, often times, are significantly skewed towards

    staying home and surviving off of government benefits.

    During President Barack Obama’s State of the Union address he addressed the significant

    challenges of high child care costs on middle class and low-income families. He even went as

    far as stating that “In today’s economy, when having both parents in the workforce is an

    economic necessity for many families, we need affordable, high-quality childcare more than

    ever.” (Obama, 2015). With more families either moving or wanting to move into the workforce,

    fewer options are becoming available to meet the demands of these families and the child care

    providers. Child care is not equal across the economic spectrum, and in many cases child care

    facilities that are designated and subsidized to support low-income families are without many of

    the basic resources needed to provide quality, educational environments for these children.

    While several programs are in place to supplement services directed to support low-

    income families, the government stipends only provide so much, and many child care facilities

    are still in dire need of basic necessities such as diapers, books, art supplies, healthy snacks, toys,

    space, and staff. Since 1991, the ChildCareGroup (CCG) has held the contract for the Dallas

    County Child Care Assistance (CCA) subsidy program (ChildCareGroup, 2015). The CCA is a

    federally funded program providing low-income families with options and affordable access to

    child care and education services. In order to be eligible for these services, parents must be

    working, attending school, or participating in a job training program. As of July 2, 2015, there

    were approximately 170 registered child care facilities serving the Dallas County, according to aTexas Workforce report. As reported in the 2012 annual report for the CCG, the CCG program

    had funds to provide services to 595 at risk children and their families each day at their seven

    accredited centers. Over the course of the year, CCG served over 806 children and 718 families.

    CCG programs maintain 100% enrollment, with an active wait list of more than 100 children

    (ChildCareGroup, 2015).

    In 2012, the CCG had a total budget of roughly $13 million, of which $11.4 million was

    supplemented by federal funding; the remainder was provided mostly through corporate

    sponsorships, donations and community fundraising activities. In an effort to provide additional

    support, public awareness, and assistance to these childcare centers and the families they support,

    we hope to organize an event which will function as a fundraiser, job fair, public awareness

    campaign, and a family activity event raising as much as $250,000 in support of this cause.

    Background & Problem

    In America, daycare has become primarily privatized and has become one of the leading

    industries in employment growth. This rapid growth is a result a consistent rise is sales/usage of

    day care centers throughout the U.S. During the more recent economic turmoil and that of more

    recent years, families are more and more in need of a dual income base just to make ends meet.

    Whether public or private daycare, they all charge with a very high price.

    Localized child care usage rates depend children's age, availability of resources, and local

    facilities. Daily child care usage must not exceed 12 hours, and the average fee per month varies

    from $400 to nearly $2,000. Since the financial crisis erupted in 2008, expensive child care costs

    have become a burden for many middle-class families in America. The focus of this proposal

    will be on Child Care Services for low-income families. The resources needed to provide

    adequate care and support to the children of these facilities include but are not limited to diapers,

    wipes, books, toys, food, space, and staff. Often times we see that child care centers that are

    designated to support low-income families are often constrained by budget limitations and are in

    need of additional support from the surrounding communities.

    Proposal

    In an effort to address this problem here locally, the Kimberly-Clark Corporation, in

    partnership the Texas Workforce Commission, Child Care Group of Texas, and the Dallas

    Chamber of Commerce would like to sponsor “ Quality Child Care “event at the Kay Bailey

    Hutchinson Convention Center. This event would provide the following support to combat this

    social issue:

    • Raise donations in support of CCG child care centers.

    • Bolster awareness and understanding of the resources available to families in

    need of subsidized child care and tools

    Donations will go towards supporting those child care services which cater to low-income

    families to ensure that every child has the opportunity for a good beginning.

    In conjunction with this event, the Kimberly-Clark Corporation, as part of our Matching

    Gifts Program matches will match employees' charitable donations on a dollar-for-dollar basis.

    As part of this community outreach effort 500 employees have elected to make CCG their

    charitable organization for 2016. Each employee has committed to donating $1,000 that, along

    with the match funds from Kimberly-Clark, puts total contribution to the CCG at $100,000.

    In addition, our Community Partners program provides $500 grants to non-profit

    organizations where employees and their spouses or domestic partners volunteer more than 30

    hours per year. In conjunction with these events 100 staff from Kimberly-Clark have committed

    to serving 30 hours in 2016 to support the efforts of the CCG and project Quality Child Care.

    As a secondary effect of this event, we will be looking at making a positive impact in the

    unemployment in the DFW area. We will hold an event which will function on various levels,

    first of which, would be raising funds/donations to go towards supporting these childcare centers.

    As an ancillary aspect to this event would double as a career fair, bringing employers in to meet,

    interview and potentially hire adults in these low-income families to job openings. Finally, we

    would want to add in an element of fun to this event to attract local families, adults and children,

    to come out and be exposed to the various childcare services available in the DFW Metroplex,

    meet various employers throughout the area and to have some family fun.

    Plan & Schedule

    The Kimberly-Clark team will coordinate efforts with the convention center, local vendors,

    advertising agencies, CCG, TWC, corporate sponsors and local support services to ensure the

    event is successful. Any event takes a concerted team effort to handle all of the details. As part

    of this coordinated effort, one key Event Manager will be identified as well as individual

    Chairpersons for subcommittees:

    • Venue management

    • Speakers

    • Entertainment

    • Publicity

    • Sponsors

    • Volunteer management

    One key focus will be on corporate sponsors to raise donations for this event. This can

    range from national organizations that might want to sponsor a dinner, offer a door prize or

  • 8/18/2019 Business Communication Mock Proposal

    8/23

    - # $ % & '

    giveaways to attending guests. Local businesses will be solicited to provide goods and services,

    such as flowers for the tables, gift bag items, or advertising support. We will also be partnering

    with community organizations to identify additional resources and support with organizing and

    staffing this event

    Event promotion starts with the initial notice or advertisement on our company website, a

    note in our newsletter or email to save the date, and then builds to include online and off-line

    publicity, media relations and on-going outreach to encourage registration. An aggressive

    marketing campaign will take place which will include posters and flyers through the various

    child care centers throughout the Dallas/Fort Worth area. There will also be efforts to have

    public service announcements run through television, radio and newspaper outlets. In closure

    the team will ensure post-event thank-you’s, sponsor acknowledgements and articles about the

    event’s key messages or fundraising success are completed and published.

    Success Measures

    When we set our initial event goals and objectives, we also consider how we will

    evaluate the event to determine our success. The objective of our event is to raise awareness

    about the importance of improving the childcare services in the Dallas area.

    The event will measure for the number of participation. Each participant will be counted

    for during the event by having them sign in. We will track attendance during the event by asking

    for every individual to submit a resume. We will also track the number of interviews day cares

    conducted, and jobs offered to participants. We will use this outcome as a measure for the end

    result of whether services meet proposed targets or standards and demonstrate impact and benefit

    of activities. We will also measure how effective this is improving day cares and gauge

  • 8/18/2019 Business Communication Mock Proposal

    9/23

    . # $ % & '

    effectiveness of expectations and generally show improvement in accuracy, reliability, courtesy,

    competence, responsiveness, and compliance. We will also measure based on the amount of

    money raised through this event and the donations received. These donations will be then handed

    to the Child Care group and they will distribute.

    Staffing

    During the Daycare Fair, individuals from low income families would be able to apply

    for positions at any daycare booth. In order for the event to run smoothly, committees would be

    assigned as daycares become aware.

    There will be three types of committees who will be responsible in planning an executing

    an agenda for the event. The first committee will consist of one representative from each daycare

    and they will meet regularly to receive information about logistics of the event such as location

    of where to set up, time to be there, assigning schedules for representatives to be present in their

    booths, and brochures with detailed information about their daycare. The second committee will

    consist of individuals who will discuss how to achieve analyzed projections through marketing

    techniques. This committee will be responsible for making our initiative present in the DFW

    community. In addition, they will also collect the data from the registration forms, and resumes

    submitted. The trend/marketing committee will be in charge of creating a database.

    The third committee will be a finance committee where they will be in charge of how

    donations are used to fund for more events such as 5Ks. They also will develop a budget for

    allocation of costs for using the Kay Bailey Hutchinson convention center. The physical and

    monetary donations will be given to the Child Care group and they will distribute among the

    daycares.

    Before the New Beginnings Event, half of the staff will be recruited from all the day

    cares participating in the event and the rest of the staff will be the Kimberly Clark employees

    who volunteer for 30 hours a year. Staff will be compensated biweekly and at a set rate per hour.

    After an individual submits an application with references, we will review the application. If the

    individual seems like a good fit for the position, we will move to conduct a phone interview and

    have them fill out an aptitude test. Finally, the individual would be asked to come into the office

    for an interview. This interview will determine whether individuals will be a good fit for the

    program.

    Budget

    Kimberly Clark Corp. in collaboration with the Dallas Chamber of Commerce, the

    ChildCareGroup of Dallas, and the Texas Workforce Commission will hold a biannual one-day

    event at the Kay Bailey Hutchison convention center at downtown Dallas. This event will

    provide activities for families, awareness to the resources available to low-income families, and

    double as a career fair parents looking for work. We expect to attract from 4,000 to 5,000 guests

    and other organizational representatives. Our goal is to receive donations in the range of

    $100,000 from co-sponsor organizations like Toy R Us, Target, and Abbott. The costs include

    the training of staff, advertising, entertainment, and convention center costs. Details of costs are

    listed in table 1 below.

    Conclusion

    The “Quality Child Care…Good Beginning For Everyone” event will create meaningful

    opportunities that strengthen relationships between the Kimberly–Clark Corporation and the

    DFW community. This event would be various level of praising funds. . The event would be

    the first level of raising fund which provides children the support such as diaper, book, toys,

    foods; and fund for low-income childcare facilities. In long term, Kimberly Clark raise fund

    throughout the year from donation via website QualityChildCare.com/GoodBeginnings. It also is

    job fair event, thus it positively impact unemployment on DFW area.

    Grading Rubric

    BCOM3311- Assignment- Collaborative Team Proposal Instructions & Grading Rubric (Rev. 8-12-15)

    Step 1) Consider the following scenario: The Dallas Chamber of Commerce has developed afriendly competition, “Businesses Give Back,” in order to promote social responsibility andcommunity engagement among Dallas-area businesses. The competition asks businesses tocreate a program, event, charitable campaign, or similar community action project that isdesigned to address an important need in the Dallas area. Appropriate needs/social issues mightinclude homelessness, poverty, at-risk youth, domestic violence, literacy (for children or adults),and environmental concerns, but there are of course many other needs in our community. TheChamber will pay half of the cost of the winning project. Your boss has wholeheartedlyembraced this competition. He recognizes that it is important for businesses to give back to theircommunities. He is also very interested in burnishing the company’s public image. As a result,he has appointed several writing teams and instructed each team to create an informal proposalfor the competition.

    Step 2) Your team must 1) identify a specific, significant need/social issue in the Dallas area; 2)invent a project that concretely addresses that need/social issue in effective, meaningful ways;and 3) present your project in an informal report.

    • Invent a program, event, charitable campaign, etc. that is designed to address theneed/social issue you’ve identified in concrete ways

    • Write an effective informal proposal in Microsoft Word with the goal of winning theChamber of Commerce competition. In order to be effective, your proposal will need todo the following (but not necessarily in this order):
