Many
of my clients are interested in finding careers that help them
to make a difference in the world. As one of my clients, a
former advertising agency executive, put it, "With all the
work that needs to be done to repair our world, I just don't
care about selling bowls of cereal anymore."
If
you've been considering finding a more
"purpose-filled" career, you might enjoy knowing about
these sites:
Philanthropy

the nonprofit world's No. 1 source of news, commentary, and

U.S.
grantmakers and their grants. They also operate research,
education, and training programs designed to advance
philanthropy at every level.
