October 14

The speeches again today were very interesting and influential. It was hard not to feel obligated to donate to each organization because they all seemed so worthwhile. The appeal to pathos today was amazing. I felt like each organization was a great cause and that I should do something to help after I heard about all of the great things they had already done. Maddie’s speech was very well thought out and I liked that she used so many interesting facts. I liked that Daniel didn’t use the podium; it was a nice change during the speeches to have someone walking around the room. Elise was very powerful with her story and the presentation of the story. It grabbed my attention right away. Overall, the entire project was very interesting. I didn’t realize that there were so many influential organizations in our community that did such a wide variety of things.
