Issues Needing A Voice ...
Do you feel compelled to give a voice to an issue, help raise awareness or bring people together to find a solution? If so, you have a great starting point for defining your life calling or your dream business.
There are many local, regional and global issues that need creative, determined people to work on solving them. Although many people tend to think of issue work in terms of volunteers and poorly paid jobs, there are organizations that pay well for achieving results. And there is plenty of work to do – from raising awareness with professional publicity campaigns to fundraising, results oriented research and hands on management of solutions.
