MY STORY
I am sharing a blog post I authored that is not about finding your next job. Rather, this personal post explores the lessons I learned when I lost my job and went from a fundraiser to a donor recipient. That experience opened my eyes to how I could better service and treat beneficiaries of a nonprofit when I found my next job.
