Building on the “community Day Project I feel as though it can be used to bring opportunities into communities in the form of employment and education possibilities. By inviting a number of organisations from the public and private sector, they can set up activities or information stalls that can lure people who may not be employed or possess no skills. Labour companies or even military branches such as the navy and army can provide pamphlets or information regarding how to pursue a career in their chosen profession. This may encourage people to join these service units and obtain new skills such as mechanic or plumbing trades that they utilise once they leave the military.
Stalls that provide eye catching and stimulating attractions such as the NZ Army stall seen below will attract people: (Photo by: A-dit-ya: 2007)

Other organisations such as MIT or other Polytechnics can offer trade opportunities that younger unskilled youths may not have considered or even known about. This will definitely have a flow on effect into the local community as more people hold down jobs and more money is pumped into the local area. Also as unemployment and the number of uneducated drops, crime and other negative social amenities should fall as well
