Title: MOVE with Purpose

Abstract

Have you ever wondered how to take a seed of an idea to reality? The IEEE MOVE (Mobile Outreach utilizing volunteer engagement) Program started that way. That seed just celebrated its 8th anniversary of providing service to the community and is expanding internationally. MOVE volunteers support disaster relief agencies committed to assisting victims of natural disasters, such as hurricanes, forest fires, and flooding. MOVE brings assistance in terms of short-term communications, and power solutions, allowing those affected by these natural disasters to stay connected.

When not deployed for natural disasters, MOVE volunteers conduct community outreach and facilitate learning opportunities for students and the general public in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM).
Learn the key steps in developing such a program and MOVE with purpose.
3 key takeaways from this presentation
1) How to bring a vague idea to a fully developed international program.
2) How to build team engagement and enthusiasm.
3) How to develop relationships outside your immediate community.
