One organization we teamed up with was the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Idaho. Our goal was to create a Public Service Announcement (PSA) for them to distribute to local media and across their social media channels. Working with an organization like the Ronald McDonald House in 2020 had challenges. Ronald McDonald House is a place for families of sick or injured kids to stay while their children are receiving care at area hospitals. Capturing the day-to-day activities and in-house interviews under COVID protocols required creative solutions. Volunteers could make an impact by donating a meal, a simple, yet impactful gesture.<\/p>\n<p>The message of my PSA was \u201cBe the Difference,\u201d the theme captured the RMHC messaging in volunteering throughout the pandemic but also gave people the power to affect their community. \u201cBe A Difference\u201d was the roof on the foundation we had built over the semester. To begin, we looked inward and ways to tell our story. A theme started emerging for me throughout the semester, and that was one discovery, and how to turn that self-discovery into action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"panel s-wrapper site-panel site-panel--wysiwyg top-padding--add_padding bottom-padding--add_padding\"\n\t\t\t\t data-index=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t data-js=\"panel\"\n\t\t\t\t data-type=\"wysiwyg\"\n\t\t\t     \n\t\t\t\t data-modular-content>\n\t\n\t<div class=\"panel-wysiwyg--1col option_inline top-padding--add_padding bottom-padding--add_padding\">\n    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"l-content--outer\">\n\t\t\t\t<header class=\"s-header l-content--inner\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<h2\n\t\tclass=\"site-panel__title s-title h2\"\n\t\t>\n\n\tSLx Featured Submissions\n\n<\/h2>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/header>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"l-container--thin\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"s-content l-container--inner--no-padding\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"g-row g-row--panel-1col\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-depth=\"0\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-name=\"columns\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-livetext>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"g-col t-content\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-depth=\"1\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-index=\"0\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-name=\"column_content\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-autop=\"true\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-livetext=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><a class=\"c-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.boisestate.edu\/servicelearning\/students\/sl-exhibition\/featured-submissions\/\">Return to SLx Featured Submissions<\/a><\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n    \n\t\t\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alana LynnProf. Erin Fox \u2013 PRO 311Ronald McDonald House Select to view video Community Partner:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":858,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4220,4217,4225],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-76344","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-college-of-arts-and-sciences","category-slx-featured-submission","category-spring-2021"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.2 (Yoast SEO v27.2) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>PRO 311 - Be The Difference - Service-Learning<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.boisestate.edu\/servicelearning\/blog\/2021\/05\/03\/pro-311-be-the-difference\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"PRO 311 - Be The Difference\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Alana LynnProf. Erin Fox \u2013 PRO 311Ronald McDonald House Select to view video Community Partner:...\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.boisestate.edu\/servicelearning\/blog\/2021\/05\/03\/pro-311-be-the-difference\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Service-Learning\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-05-03T15:00:55+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2025-06-09T16:23:05+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.boisestate.edu\/servicelearning\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/363\/2021\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-03-23-at-5.28.36-PM-1200x630.png\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1200\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"630\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/png\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.boisestate.edu\/servicelearning\/blog\/2021\/05\/03\/pro-311-be-the-difference\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.boisestate.edu\/servicelearning\/blog\/2021\/05\/03\/pro-311-be-the-difference\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"\",\"@id\":\"\"},\"headline\":\"PRO 311 &#8211;
