Abstract
This paper attempts to examine the role of nonprofit
organizations in a profit oriented society. Organizations of this
nature tend to be taken tend to be taken for granted by the general
public. Unfortunately, the government and business sectors
sometimes see it as threatening. This creates more problems for this
sector. It must provide its service to society in a time when
unemployment, crime, illiteracy, and poverty are increasing. The
positive efforts and successes of this sector are overshadowed by
these increases.
The first section of the paper describes the history of the
sector, gives it a definition, describes its diversity(divisions),
provides examples, and examines the future of this sector. Section
two talks about my work experience at Cranbrook Kingswood's
Horizons - Upward Bound program this summer. It is presented by
sample journal entries and a list of my responsibilities. The third
section describes the impact of this Work Experience SIP on my life.
How it helped me to rediscover my passion in life and rethink my
career goals.
