Why do people work for change?

I’ve wondered about this since I started in an entry-level job for a public interest citizens group a long time ago. And I’ve thought about it more since hooking up with EchoDitto awhile ago. Check out the clients we’re working with. Together we are doing some amazing stuff.

The folks who work for EchoDitto – and the many nonprofit and for profit clients they help – have signed on to use their talents to benefit others.

We work to make a difference. That’s what I think. Our world isn’t perfect. Could it be? We hope so. Can we make it better? We think so.

We work because our skills are needed in our communities - and because we care. OK – that sounds too simple. But is it?

Are you working just for a paycheck? Or because you hope your work matters?

Do you just want to do something to make a difference? Is there an issue that’s especially important to you? A skill that you can contribute? A place you want to work? If so, you’re on the way.

Don’t stop now.

Are you a teacher or a dabbler in the online universe? Are you a designer or someone with topnotch coordination skills? Whatever you are or want to be – whatever you’re really great at – you are needed.

You can work online for EchoDitto, for a local government agency, or in a school. Work for a nonprofit or for a profit-making company that cares about its employees. Work in your community – whatever that may be. You are needed there.

Determine to make a difference and you will. And if you need help to carry your work to others, let us know. We can help.
