By community project, what i have in mind is a particular endeavor involving civic minded people working together to achieve a common goal that would benefit the community...\n\npeople get involved in community projects for a variety of reasons: to help, to vent out, to socialize, etc.. community projects are good so long as they meet the needs of the community and at no cost to them

If you are not sure about the implementation and its benefits after application, then follo the existing tradition, which is time tested. \nIf you are confident of benefits likely to come after new hanges, don't be afraid of risk. Go ahead with ur idea, convince people on your path. Keep patience. Results will come in your favour, once it is implemented.

Here's an alternative for you to consider.  Because funding is already spread out so thin, you would be better off volunteering to help with an established project instead.  Most organizations are crying for people to help.\n\nFind the Volunteer Match in your area, and apply.

What a question!  The advantages are that you get a large audience to see your project and give you feedback.  If you are are a filmmaker you want people to see want you have done.  Drawbacks are people telling you what they think about your project.  It's a catch 22.  You need the feedback to improve your ideas.  It's hell when they don't get it.  This only makes you a better filmmaker.  You want to get your ideas across to the masses.

It is said, that marketing concepts and techniques can be effective in promoting social objectives such as housing, safe driving, and family planning. It could be argued that social causes can be advanced more successfully through applying principles of marketing analysis, planning and control, hence promoting social change.\n\nHowever, in my opinion we are talking about individual empowerment through econmics, for example using market force to promote social change.\n\nLets take an example from Finland...\nI call this the housing estate theory\nQuestion: why is the not the same urban decay there is in the UK or the USA regarding housing estates or projects?\n\nFirstly, the Finns build houses or flats/appartments for living not for just staying\nSecondly, they build rented and sales dwellings together\nThese two ideas are created it could be argued by this       such as: \n\n1. knowledge - the problem is known, housing estates creste urban decay, however we need more houses. \n\n2. desire - there is a desire for most people to change the future of the housing estate toward a happy and safe environment. \n\n3. skills - they know what to do, build a happy and safe environment by building rented and sales houses together.\n\n4. optimism - people in rented dwellings see the benefit and the possiblity of buying there own place while not wishing to give the image of the poorer relation. While the home owners are more willing to keep the environment safe because they have a personal investment.\n\n5. facilitation - home owner have better educational and financal resorses to influence services to the area hither to the rented dweller benefit.\n \n6. stimulation - this it could be argue influences the rented dweller to buy or invest in the properties which in turn rinses the social position of the area.\n \n7. reinforcement - the newspapers say its a nice place to live hence market force or social marketing has achieved it goal of improving the living conditions of the rented dwellers, and ending urban and social decay.

Obvious benefits are the comfort of having one's ethnic group nearby. Conflicts are usually between minorities and White. \n\n\nhttp://www.infoplease.com/ce6/us/A0859985.html\n\nhttp://nycivilrights.org/about/begin.jsp\n\nGood luck!

Honestly, I think my community is better because I teach my children to be respectful and honest. Also I re frame from drugs, alcohol, and other criminal acts. The key to a better community is for everyone to take care of the children, to care about what is best for all of them.

Contact your favorite charity. Your community service is most beneficial if it is in an area that is of interest to you.\n\nSome places to consider:\nBoys and Girls Club\nYMCA\nLocal nursing home\nFood kitchen\nSalvation Army\nYour church of choice\n\nI had to do community service for my school so I volunteered at a church fund raiser and I also spent some time at a local convent providing some company to an aging nun in the infirmary. I really enjoyed the time I spent with this special person who saw the world in a really loving way.

I just like helping people.  But, for others, if it drives them to provide good answers and participate in (and improve) the community I don't see the harm in it.  It is ashame when I see people answering questions with "I don't know" type answers just to get two points, but that is only because it harms the community and I see this as a great resource.

you need to tell us where this residential project is because geography is pretty important! Of course not less important is culture and customs where this is located! Otherwise if no restrictions exist and weather allows it then make lots of swimming pools and and lots of outdoor activities like  golf courses and tennis courts, having these features in your project plus a secure and environmentally clean atmosphere will enable the project to sell itself without much hassle...\n\nyou are welcome to contact me for further discussion
