The 12


One of the reason's I haven't been updating as much is that I've been putting a lot of energy into my efforts to find work.

Next Thursday, I plan on seeing how much all of this work has paid off when I make a trek to Philadelphia, PA for the Idealist.org Non-Profit Job Fair.

With over 90 organizations in attendance, I need to pick my targets wisely. After a look I narrowed the field down to twelve:

• ACORN


• Clean Water Action


• Empowerment Group


• Intercommunity Action


• PIRG (Public Interest Research Group)


• Playing For Peace (group that uses Basketball to build understanding)


• RHD (Resources for Human Development)


• SEIU 1199P(Health Care Workers)


• Sierra Club


• TeamChildren


• UNITE-HERE


• Working America

Noteably absent are the Peace Corps and Americorps. I've realized that my financial situation prohibits me from seeking work with these two organizations.

I'm also working on a portfolio that will incorporate this page; American Alliance/Road To Gilead and the "Media Portal" I've developed.

I feel good about my chances, and that has to be a good thing.
