Government & Nonprofits

Welcome to the Loeb Center Government and Nonprofits page. Here you will find a plethora of resources as you mull over or dive into the realm of social impact and public service work. 10% of the American workforce is employed in the non-profit sector, mostly small agencies with less than 100 employees and less than $100K annual budget, while federal, state, and local government jobs – including subcontractors – account for another 7% of the 150M Pre-Covid workforce. Importantly, embarking in a career in government and nonprofits fulfils the humanist need of service to society and oneself, the hallmark of a republic-democracy.
