we build on the success that we had last summer and partnership with oedwe. the mayor held a job challenge on april 30th. and i'll talk about what came out of that challenge. we've developed a new online application system, so it's easier for the young to apply on their own or through the support of our community providers. we're launching something called doorway organizations to increase access points for young people throughout the city, we selected six different nabld base organizations that young people can come, find out about what training is -- or what opportunities are available. get assessed and then refer to either appropriate training if they need that or help in accessing the private sector opportunities. finally we held a youth fail on may 11th. of the two events i talked about the employer challenge this year held in city haul, 569 jobs were pledged on the spot. in addition to 368 public sector for a total of 218. we're beyond that in terms of the number of jobs. these were pledges and united way is working to followup with these to make sure t
