Hi,
I spent my career in Anti-Money Laundering & was recently laid off. I'm seriously thinking about switching to a job that would have a positive impact on others but still need to bring home a decent salary for my family. If anyone made a similar move and can give some guidance I'd greatly appreciate it.

My first thought is that you should write about your experiences. But I don't know if that would put food on the table. Given your background, couldn't you move into working in the finance industry? You surely must have transferable skills.

Hi,
Thanks for responding. I've been working in finance my whole career. Even before the layoff I was looking to do something more meaningful.

I'll keep plugging away. Take care

I haven’t made a career switch/move but if you want to bring home a decent salary while also working for a nonprofit you might want to consider working for a national nonprofit organization such as the YMCA, YWCA, United Way and etc.
Either way good luck with your search and career move!

Hi,

Thanks a lot for the feedback. I'll def keep that in mind.

Take care
