Partnership with Oconomowoc High School’s Global Sustainability Class 2019-2020

Fall 2019, kicked off a year long partnership between Evolution Marketing and two innovative Oconomowoc High School teachers, who were leading a NEW "Global Sustainability" course that was based on the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

The students earn credit through the class for Advanced Placement Environmental Science, Spanish Language 5 OR International Baccalaureate Spanish. As part of this collaboration Evolution Marketing arranged a partnership between the class and the Citizens Utilities Board of Wisconsin in which the students translated marketing materials into Spanish and are working towards putting on utility bill clinics. The students learned about global sustainability hands on through their volunteering in various ways with CUB.

Not only did Evolution Marketing facilitate SDG #17 (partnerships), these partnership supported SDGs 4, 11, and 7 through the Citizens Utility Board’s work. According to one of the students, “We volunteered at CUB’s 40th anniversary event. We welcomed guests, staffed the registration table, and ran an information booth, which featured the materials that we had translated into Spanish for CUB. We also had the opportunity to listen to the speakers and learn more details about CUB and everything they’ve done for our community.” Evolution Marketing strives to ensure that future generations are equipped to work for a regenerative and equitable world. Lisa has been a strong advocate and champion for the Global Sustainability class and she remains a strong community partner and resource.

Evolution Marketing was awarded the 2020 Oconomowoc Area Chamber Of Commerce Small Business of the Year Award in December for our leadership in and dedication to supporting our community, including working with innovative Oconomowoc High School teachers to help develop a "Global Sustainability" class!  Thank you for nominating Evolution Marketing, Mrs. Kelly Holtzman and Ms. Danielle Chaussee!
