Action+Plan+-+Natural+Disasters+1

=Action Plan= toc ==

1. **The name of your organization** Learn It Use It (LIUI)

2. **Your specific topic** Quality and up-to-date earthquake preparation education for elementary to middle school kids in rural Sichuan public schools.

3. **The purpose- Why are you doing this action?** We are doing this to save innocent children from suffering a painful death or serious injury due to lack of preparation and prior knowledge about earthquakes. Hopefully, students (and their parents) will feel reassured that they are as prepared as they can possibly be for earthquakes.

4. **The message- Why should people be informed about this issue?** People should be informed about this issue so they can avoid death by earthquake.

5. **A goal- make sure this is a project that can be done and hopefully continued** Quality and up-to-date earthquake preparation education for elementary to middle school kids in rural Sichuan public schools.

6. **A short-term plan for achieving your goal (keep it simple and don’t be too ambitious- again make sure you CAN actually do this)** Find and talk to a preferably international organization working with rural communities/schools in Sichuan, asking them to help us choose and contact a school that lacks sufficient earthquake preparation education. Or, if the organization already has an earthquake education plan in place with a school, ask if we could help by creating and/or donating resources, such as pamphlets/posters in Chinese for the teachers to teach with.

7. **A long-term plan for achieving your goal** Research earthquake safety procedures and tips, make pamphlets and/or instructional booklets/posters, and mail them to the organization aforementioned so that they can deliver the resources and relay the information. AND/OR: Raise money with a fundraisers such as bake sales/donations and use the money to purchase earthquake safety procedure booklets/handbooks to mail to the organization.

8. **Resources needed for this action plan** Money to buy earthquake preparedness books as well as the books themselves [possibly]. Materials for fundraising [also possibly]. Information on how to stay safe during an earthquake [available on the internet]. Materials such as poster paper to create earthquake preparedness resources, if we don't buy books. Way to translate things into Chinese, if we aren't able to do it ourselves [probably available on the internet].

9. **Division of responsibilities- who will do what?** Naming our organization - Mengxin [Completed] Emailing the organization/contacting the school - Tina & Dianna Researching about earthquake safety/preparation - Tina & Dianna Making/buying the resources (posters, pamphlets, etc.) - all, mostly Mengxin Translating - Mengxin
