The Impact Job
Sep 25Liked by Unofficial Social Chair

Such a great list of resources! We'd love to ask that The Impact Job be added to Newsletters and Job Boards.

https://www.theimpactjob.com/

We featured handpicked jobs across social impact in fields like nonprofits, climate change, and mission-driven businesses. We also have in-depth company profiles and a weekly newsletter read by 8,000+ professionals in social impact.
