Career opportunities abound in the nonprofit sector Nonprofit organizations require the talents of many different types of workers and not just those looking to volunteer. According to the National Center for Charitable Statistics, more than 1.4 million nonprofit organizations operate within the United States alone, so individuals who hope to work in the nonprofit sector have many organizations to choose from.

Even though they do not aim to turn a profit, nonprofit organizations still face the same challenges and have the same needs, including the need for competent staff members, as many for-profit businesses. In addition to earning their livings, employees of nonprofit organizations often thrive on the notion that they are doing their share to make a difference in the world. As with any other company, nonprofits have to fill certain roles in an organization. The following are some common job descriptions as they pertain to nonprofit organizations. Âˇ Executive officer: The executive director or president of a nonprofit reports directly to the organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Board of Directors. He

or she will have strategic and operational responsibility for the nonprofit’s staff, expansion, programs, and daily mission. The ED will serve as a coach to help retain and develop the nonprofit’s senior management team, depending on the size of the organization. He or she also will serve as a liaison between the board and the employees. · Chief financial officer: The size of a nonprofit, the complexity of its programs and its revenue sources will drive the responsibilities of the CFO. At smaller nonprofits, the CFO may branch out beyond complex finance and investment activities to take on functional and even problemsolving capabilities. 1551 Tullamore Street At larger nonprofits, Mankato, MN 56001 the CFO may be more involved with reporting and meeting Monday and Tuesdays the requirements of government contracts.

SHOP LOCALLY Help Keep Your Community’s Economy Strong

• When you shop locally, not only do you buy the easy, convenient way, but you keep the money in your community, where it benefits the place where you live. • Shop where the parking is free, where you know the merchants and always feel welcome in their stores. • Find the unique products and services at local businesses that cannot be found elsewhere. • Where we shop, where we eat and have fun, all of it makes our community home. • One-of-a-kind businesses are an intregal part of the distinctive character of our communites. • Small local businesses are a large employer in our community, and provide the good, stable, fun jobs to residents. • Get great service because local businesses hire people with a better understanding of the products they are selling and take more time to get to know customers. Invest in the community. Local businesses are owned by people who live this community, are less likely to leave, and are more invested in the community’s future.

· Fundraisers: Fundraising is a key component for nonprofits and how many of them remain operational. Portions of fundraising efforts are devoted to corporate operations, while the remainder will be allocated for the cause. Fundraising can be broken down further into various niches, depending on the nonprofit’s size. Annual funds, alumni affairs, direct marketing, grant seeking, and donor relations are various parts of the larger fundraising picture. If the nonprofit has a large fundraising staff, each of these divisions may be handled separately. Otherwise, all of them may be

· Public relation specialist: A public relations or marketing professional works with senior management or independently to develop a communications plan for the organization. He or she will develop the nonprofit’s core messages and ensure consistency across various media. A PR professional also will respond to inquiries about the organization. In times of crisis, the PR professional will downplay any negative news and work to shed positive light on the organization. · Administrative roles: Nonprofits need accounting and financial professionals, office administrators, human resources employees, information systems and IT workers, and a staff to handle marketing. Administrative positions often overlap inside small nonprofit organizations. Nonprofits may not have the same pay structure as other private organizations, but nonprofit professionals often find their jobs rewarding.

Making new friends after a move or other life event Downsizing and other life changes often find seniors leaving their comfort zones to move to new neighborhoods or regions of the country. It can be difficult to leave those comfort zones behind, especially when it means saying goodbye to close friends or family members. Establishing new social circles as a senior can be challenging. But with a little effort and the right attitude, seniors can meet new people and enjoy the excitement that comes with new friendships. · Join a club. If you have a particular hobby or interest, rekindle it in your new location. Find a local gardening club, church-sponsored organization or fitness center where you can meet like-minded men and women. Ask the real estate agent who helped you relocate to make suggestions on where to find community information and read community notices in the local newspaper.

· Get a dog. Dogs make great companions inside of the house and also serve as an ice breaker when you are outdoors. Take plenty of walks and take advantage of opportunities for conversation when people come up to you to inquire about your dog. Explain your situation and you may make some new friends along the way. · Volunteer your time. Many people make new friends through volunteering. Volunteer and you’re likely to meet people who share the same interests as you. Sign up with a favorite charity or volunteer at nonprofit events and look for familiar faces. Start talking to those people you meet again and again. · Participate in church events. Places of religious worship are often cornerstones of a community, and they frequently host different events to get parishioners or members together. Read the bulletin and get
