Title of Video: Bonner Diaries: Jake Miller- Talking on why he chose to pursue the Bonner program.

Purpose Statement: The purpose of this video is a sort of testimonial concept about why the Bonner program is more than just a service based group. Jake's desire to not only temporarily alleviate a problem but to discover what the true problem is and find a way to stop it. This is why getting involved with the Bonner program whether it be a student on campus, an administrator, the greater community, or even an organization in hopes of volunteers will be more than simply a serve and ditch group of individuals. The Bonner Program community wants to make an impact on society.

Intended Audience: The intended audience for this video can encompass a large group from outside students in the existing community, prospective bonners, campus administrators, those seeking a Bonner program in their campus community, the greater community around campus, and especially possible community partners seeking a group of volunteers who are looking for more than a weekend warrior and truly create change in their community.

Promotion Plan: Through the Bonner Network, The Carson Newman Website (in negotiation), The cnbonner YouTube Channel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDTrZC-tyyA and our own Bonner Wiki http://cnbonner.pbworks.com/Bonner-Video-Project-Submissions
