add the ability for it to assist students getting in to college or university
the gradfly site as an example

Have a outreach project for women for the Ubuntu Community (UWOP)
- http://
- Blueprint: https:/
- https:/
- Provide tasks smaller than Gnome OPW that we can handle
- Reach out to UW and beyond to look for mentors
- Recognize that employment + skills + help in higher education is important for interns
and a lot of new contributors, target that
- Also stories about how it helped careers of current members (related to Career Days)
as a separate page.
- Show what we have done to the people who want to join to show what they can do with
UW and Ubuntu Community
- Should this be separate stories from http://
Yes but they can be tied to the page.
Host at least 3 CareerDays sessions
- http://
- Not just women :)
Outreach programs for LoCo teams that engage young women (11-18) in technology
related projects
- How is this different than women who are in college or graduates?
- Having to deal with parents being comfortable with their childred attending events
