Wofford College student Stacey Mangan pitches project during 3rd Annual Impact and Launch Competition

2015 Mar 26

Stacey Mangan, an Impact track finalist, will pitch Get Moving Campaign. Get Moving Campaign targets elementary school children in low-income areas and encourages them to lead a healthy lifestyle and improve self-esteem before transitioning to middle school. Mangan, along with fellow students Parker Johnson and Chandler Washburn, manage the project.

Wofford's Impact and Launch programs offer scholarships to students who want to learn entrepreneurship skills through the Impact track, which promotes social-good projects and non-profit businesses, or through the Launch track, where students start and run a for-profit business. The students pitch their projects to a panel of judges in a "shark-tank" competition for a chance to win $20,000 in cash and prizes.
