Objectives of “Leo Car Wash”

How it was planned

At the outset the organizing committee of the project has discussed and prepared a plan to conduct the project. Then we searched a location to hold the event and prepared the project proposal to inform the aim of the project to the outside. Next the project chairperson assigned works to do and report them in the next committee meeting. We have conducted nearly 3 meetings to get information about the condition of the project at that moment. 

With the gathered information we reached the sponsors for sponsorships, banners etc. At the same time we reserve the location of the event and obtained permission to held the event. And also we have massively advertised about this event through social medias. Then we issue tickets to collect funds to buy the necessary items for the event. With the immense support of the club members we could able to sell tickets for mainly MBA students and undergraduates.
