The success of our projects is the ultimate metric by which we measure our impact. Everything else is a means to this end. Running a engaging & meaningful project is a multifaceted challenge. It requires ample research, excellent organizational & logistic skills, a flare for negotiation, and a keen sense of financial prudence. It will take hard work and determination but in the end a successful project can be the experience of a lifetime. | The success of our projects is the ultimate metric by which we measure our impact.

How to find a project
The first thing to do is to search the project database on Nourish's website to see if something there interests your chapter. The database will launch in the fall of 2007 and will include both past projects as well as new project opportunities. Until then, contact the national office if you want to hear more about project opportunities.
You are of course free to seek out projects that are not in our database. When we first started, we found projects using online search engines such as Google and Yahoo. While this was a war of attrition, at the end of the day it worked. You can also find projects by networking with other programs at your university. If you come across a good project, please post it on the database so others can view it.
