The document discusses how businesses can play a role in economic development by providing education and training opportunities. It outlines three ways companies can influence communities: 1) through vocational training for employees, 2) by providing incentives for education in company-related fields, and 3) by investing in local school systems to create qualified future employees and improve their public image. Examples are given showing how these efforts can lift people out of poverty by fostering self-sufficiency and pride in their work.
