Non Profit Job Listing
What do you dream to do?
Everyone has a dream…but few ever live it.
“If unrestricted by time, money, resources, or skills and you could do anything, help anyone, and make the world a better place, what would you do and how would you do it?”
Many are so busy making someone else’s dream a success that they forget or ignore that they have dreams too. Rarely does an employer empower its employees to the point that they help them put in place and build their dreams. 20 years after working hard to make other’s dreams come true many retire to nothing but a small pension.
Lately, more people are taking the plunge and rather than working for someone else, they are pursuing their own dreams in the form of creating a nonprofit and making a difference in the world. The nonprofit makes a difference and allows them to pursue their passions for those same 20 years they would work for someone else. The difference is at the end of their 20 years, they have a successful nonprofit that they can continue to work for leaving a legacy to their family.
In this economy with so many looking for work, or soon to be looking, this is the perfect opportunity to create your own work and employ others who share your passions.
The Dilemma
The dilemma is finding the solution for three major challenges when starting a nonprofit.
1. How can a person with little funds and no donors easily and affordably start a nonprofit?
2. How can a nonprofit easily find funding and donors?
3. How can someone with no experience running a nonprofit maintain the daily administration, accounting and success of a nonprofit.
Everyday around the world more people decide to abandon their dreams of starting a nonprofit than those that embark on starting one because of these three major challenges. However, setting up, maintaining and funding a nonprofit does not have to be a huge challenge. By setting up a fiscal sponsorship, set up can be quick, easy, and inexpensive. Funding and donors can be cultivated by doing simple “bite-sized” tasks and in weeks can have operational funding. I like to call these baby steps, and most tasks or even huge undertakings can be accomplished simply if it is broken down into small easily executed tasks.
One of the main focuses of the Ocean Grand web site is to help break the tasks of starting and maintaining a “ground up” nonprofit into a successful endeavor that is fun to be involved in. That is what we do at Ocean Grand, we help individuals and organizations get started with their very own 501c3 nonprofit project in just a few weeks without much money. We then help you get information on grantwriting and funding. We help you get connected, stay connected, and become successful in the nonprofit arena.
Start Small
Even if you are currently working for or determined to work for another nonprofit for the time being, this is the perfect time to start and grow your own nonprofit on the side. You may find it is easy than you thought it was and in just a short time you will be able to transition to working and being employed by your own nonprofit. You may be able to do that in a few months or it may take you 6 but either way you can run and operate your own nonprofit in a short amount of time.
So what are you waiting for? We can help you though the major hurdles and set you on a course to living your nonprofit dreams.
Everyone has a dream…but few ever live it. Are you living yours? If not, we want to help you start the process.
“If unrestricted by time, money, resources, or skills and you could do anything, help anyone, and make the world a better place, what would you do and how would you do it?”
Don’t settle for living someone else’s nonprofit dreams, its too easy to live your own.
