Option 1: Founding a Club

• Would allow Foundation EON direct control over all club activities

• Time-consuming and requires manpower to maintain it

• Need to follow club guidelines

• Could be difficult to reach a wide audience as a new club

Option 2: Partnerships• Would allow Foundation EON to reach a wide audience

in a short amount of time

• Would allow Foundation EON to avoid dealing with student organization bureaucracy/paperwork

• Provides possible additional resources to help fund events

• Can receive help from clubs to plan and manage events

Recommendation • Partner with an existing organization that can help you

run events, spread the word, raise funding… • Utilize the skills of leaders of successful clubs to help

your own cause• Requires less work for yourself, and allows for you to

spread your message to a large audience quickly

Next Steps: Option 21. Contact Danyel Chleborad, the president of Exercise and

Wellness Organization asuewo@gmail.com 2. Meet with members of club to present your vision3. Begin looking for similar clubs at different universities for

partnerships
