It is important to decide what benefits your project will provide:
Articulating the benefits will ensure a "buy in" from the needed participants and partners. The following includes example slides of the Sharbot Lake project's planned benefits.
The attainment of better academic, communications, teamwork and research skills benefits an individual throughout his/her entire life, both privately and within a work environment.
Working with a project such as Trails to Literacy provides a participant with a wider perspective of community development. By becoming involved with various district groups and their projects, participants can get an overview of the needs and opportunities within their region. They may also come to an awareness of the need of further upgrading to improve their employment outlook.
