a confusing question....

I am trying to apply for a scholarship and I came across this question. I was wondering if u people could tell me what they meant...

"Describe one of the initiatives you undertook which addressed an unmet need at school or in the community at large. What steps did you take? What were the results of your actions?"

Thanks..

I would take one of two steps.

1.) Answer with even more confusing jargon.
2.) Answer "yes, a lot, stuff"
