 Concept Paper
A concept paper is a
document used to convince
a panel of potential funders
to help a product, program,
or service become a reality.
 Five Elements of Concept Paper
1. Introduction- includes your group’s mission
and vision and a brief introduction of your
project.
2. Purpose- includes the reasons why this
project is worth your group and your
sponsor’s time, effort, and money.
3. Description-includes all the necessary
information about the project. In ICT, it
involves the sites you are going to produce
and the purpose of each and how they
work in unison.
4. Support – contains the budget
needed for the project. Some
concept papers do not specify any
amount requested from the sponsor.
5. Contact Information – includes
information on how the group can be
contacted.
Group 1-Introduction

For Years, many students depend on the

school’s drinking fountain. Aside from saving
money, the school’s drinking fountain contains
filters that make the water safe enough to
drink. But according to our research, the last
time the water tested was about three years
ago and by using the drinking fountains around
school, it is highly questionable that the water
is still safe for drinking.
Group 2- Purpose

Our group has theorized that the natural

wear-and-tear of the drinking fountain has led
to the water’s unpleasant taste. Our group, The
Mosaic Alliance, aims to create several online
sources that will help promote the awareness
of people involved about this problem and
create an online petition with the goal of
improving our drinking fountains in school.
Group 3- Description

Our group aims to create Change.org

petition, a Facebook group and a blog to help
achieve our goals. We will be creating
infographics and other related information
connected to the dangers of drinking unsafe
water especially at a young age. The scope of
our project is to be able to reach the school’s
administration, parents, teachers, and students
to sign our petition.
Group 4-Support
We will be requiring a week to develop this
project and we will start our promotion right
after we have uploaded the website. We will
also be using our own resources so the funding
for this project will be close to none. Our
expenses may only include the printing of
campaign materials and the Internet and
computer shop rentals in case we need more
time outside school hours. We will also be
using free services already offered by
Facebook, Blogger, and Change.Org.
