Jerome’s Answer

I think there are a couple of routes that can be taken.

Going into non-profit work can be rewarding, but the pay may not be substantial. You’ll be at the heart of the work, but there is a ceiling to what can be made.

The other Avenue is to build a career and set a goal for supporting and working with a non-profit. I am a VP of Sales during the day and I am on a Board of Directors for the college of adaptive arts; a college that supports individuals with disabilities. I am able to make the money I need to while donating and giving my time to the cause.

Hope that helps.
