Resently in my senior english class we have been doing Project Based Learning. One of my peirs came up with the idea of haveing some sort of volinteer makeover thing for people who are out of work and about to go to an interveiw or just generaly want to feel a little better about themselves. She's trying to figure out if this kind of service would be needed and if there would be enough service basis to apply it. any suggestions on it? prepherably sites or ways to gather information.

little background on the projects.

its based around a "Driving Question" which translates to a question about a real world problem and how can it be sloved. this is our third one and its got to end up an 8 -10 minute presentation that will basicly decide if we pass or fail. anything is better than nothing (in most cases) so please feel free to give a shot to the wind.

I think this is a great idea. I can see how this type of service would help people who have been out of the job market for whatever reason (moms, people being locked up somewhere, homeless people, etc). Actually, it would be great if this was just offered to random homeless people. I'm sure it would help them greatly in many ways. I'm sure there are organizations out there who already work with people who have, for example, been in jail for years and train them to get them back into the job market. You can start by researching those.
