Environmental Action Network
Project Sponsor: ASUC Office of Senator Nina Jhunjhnuwala
TGIF Grant: $400
Project Theme: Education and Behavior Change
Project Description: The goal of this project is to create a political action alert platform. The ASUC Eco Senate office will send out customized action alerts to people who have signed up for our political advocacy program. When people sign up, they give us their physical address. Every week, we will have an environmental bill we want people to call or contact their representative about. We will send general information about the bill to everyone, but we want a software that will integrate personalized elected representative information into the emails we send out.
Project Goals:
- Find a UC Berkeley student who is very well-versed in computer science: They must understand email template programming and the incorporation of databases into said template.
- Set a deadline with the student and work out the detailed goals of the project
- Implement software into ASUC Eco Senate office
- Advertise program to students
