Have you ever thought about starting fresh with a new career? Maybe it’s time for a complete change? If you’re in the “second half of life,” you may be thinking about taking on work or creating a business to help people or focus on a cause that’s meaningful to you.
Thankful for the “strength of the human spirit”
On Thanksgiving, I’m sharing another story I hope will inspire you to expand how you are thinking about your job search, no matter what your age.
Are you 45+ with an idea about how to make a difference?
Do you have an idea that will make a difference in your community in the areas of education, social services, environment, health care and helping others engage in encore careers (careers that combine purpose, passion and a paycheck)? If you are at least 45 years old, take note! Civic Ventures just announced an opportunity to win $5000 and mentorship to make your idea a reality.
Looking for meaningful work?
Looking for the keys to your next job? Have you considered an “encore career?” Civic Ventures, a think tank on boomers, work and social purpose, defines encore careers as jobs that “combine personal meaning, continued income and social impact.” Lucky for you, there is a terrific opportunity to learn how to make a move!
