A Job Serving Others Can Be Its Own Reward
For those who are on the fence about seeking nonprofit work, Roos offers the following words: “These days with all of us asking questions about the world’s economic future and perhaps even deeper questions, few of us would dispute the need to serve those less fortunate. Nonprofits have been singing that song for a very long time, and they are, perhaps, even more prepared than some to step up to the plate and affirm the value of each person and their right to a decent life. They are also used to being creative in the face of adversity and not wanting to see the mission lost. Who wouldn’t want to give the best hours of their day each day to that sort of enterprise?”
Joining an nonprofit is the most feasible way to make effective use of your time. Not only is it morally rewarding it provides connections that could serve to benefit you long term, both personally and professionally.
