It meets the children\u2019s various needs, for example, by collecting clothing and school supplies and organizing various benefit events. It has obtained some sponsorships that provide substantial donations in money or materials. It also funds and supervises renovations at the schools, which, more often than not, are in an advanced state of disrepair.<\/p>\n<p>To carry out its mission effectively, UEDS must meet a number of communication and public relations challenges. It needs to communicate effectively with the government and school officials to maintain the right of access to schools. Its members are primarily young educated, affluent citydwellers, so it must overcome social and cultural barriers to be accepted by the poor, undereducated parents of the children it wants to help. It must convince its sponsors and the public to support its work through donations in cash and in kind. Finally, it must be able to communicate effectively with the media in order to maintain the awareness that enables it to achieve its objectives.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>PRWB\u2019s role<\/h3>\n<p>UEDS members have some expertise in social media and had managed to achieve good media awareness on their own. The contacts established before the mission indicated the need for change management (to change the attitudes and behaviours of certain groups). The mission sought to better understand the association\u2019s needs and train some of its members in the basics of communications. Discussions on site revealed a need for UEDS to formalize its position to avoid fragmentation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Missions completed<\/h3>\n<table width=\"300\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Date<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Mission Head<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\">March 2013<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><a title=\"Guy Versailles, ARP, FSCRP\" href=\"https:\/\/rpsf.vascoweb.biz\/en\/projects-heads\/guy-versailles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Guy Versailles<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Results<\/h3>\n<p>Inundated with requests to participate in numerous projects, the members understood the need to target their actions in a specific area in order to be more effective.
