Team PLUS ME Wins UCLA Challenge

PLUS ME participated in the 20th Anniversary Net Impact Consulting Challenge with UCLA Anderson in November. We were paired with 5 MBA students who tackled a PLUS ME challenge as consultants and provided recommendations. The team then pitched their results against 15 other teams and took home 1st place in the competition. Here is a testimonial from our consultants: 

"As participants in the 2024 Net Impact Consulting Challenge (NICC) at UCLA Anderson, our team had the incredible opportunity to partner with The PLUS ME Project. From the start of this project, we were inspired by PLUS ME Project's mission to foster confidence and build a sense of belonging through the power of storytelling. Our work was focused on supporting PLUS ME Project’s outreach efforts as they continue to expand their impact. To help PLUS ME Project grow their network of partnerships, we developed an outreach prioritization matrix, and key messaging guides to tailor their messaging to the unique needs of potential partners. Working closely with PLUS ME Project Team gave us a deeper appreciation for the transformative work they do. The challenges they face are nuanced and the PLUS ME Project Team's success is a testament to their immense dedication to drive change. We are proud to have played a small part in advancing the important work of The PLUS ME Project. Our gratitude goes out to the team at PLUS ME -  Richard, Karol, and Bethanee - for trusting us with this project and for the impactful work they do!" - Michelle Fan, Kenneth Han, Valerie, Hirschberg, Qianyu Li, Rita Manukyan

We thank UCLA Anderson and these 5 incredible students for the resources they invested in our organization.
