Chicago Nonprofit Jobs Overview
For many, nonprofit jobs are more than a mere profession—they are a mission, a calling, a reason for being. These workers go into the nonprofit sector with a propensity for making the world a better place. They take these jobs to create true meaning in their lives, to fight for a cause they believe in, to fundraise for non-financial gain. People of all stripes and colors, with a miscellany of interests, work for nonprofits, from the American Red Cross and the Humane Society to the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF).
If you like teamwork, can parlay creative thinking into interpersonal skills, and enjoy rallying people to join your initiatives, you should consider a nonprofit job. The fields in this sector are incredibly diverse, ranging from health, poverty, and education to foreign affairs, environmental concerns, the arts, and various other advocacy groups. Traditionally, when looking for a nonprofit position, job hunters will seek out nonprofit organizations (NPOs), which have been granted tax-exempt status by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). In the past few decades, not-for-profit entities have proliferated exponentially in the U.S., with about 1.6 million nonprofit organizations now recognized by the IRS. Nonprofits employ 10% of the nation's workforce, which translates to around 11.4 million jobs.

About Working in Chicago, Illinois
If you're going to Chicago to experience "da Bears," deep-dish pizza, and windy streets, native Chicagoans say "fogetta 'bout it!" While these have made Chicago famous, you'll find many locals eating thin-crust, tavern-style pie. Plus, the city isn't on any list of the windiest cities in the U.S.—a local newspaper named it "The Windy City" after the Chicago elite's propensity toward boastfulness and self-promotion. And while the Chicago jobs list (hit jobs, that is) includes notorious mobsters from Chicago like Al Capone, John Dillinger, and Baby Face Nelson, linguists are noticing that the "Chicago accent" is disappearing.
However, there's a reason Condé Nast Traveler has named Chicago the "best big city in the U.S." Chicago is home to top universities, including Northwestern University, Wheaton College, and Valparaiso. And if you're looking for Chicago jobs, you can relocate to any one of the city's unique neighborhoods, such as North Center with its cozy Irish pubs and breweries or Uptown, the lively entertainment district. For those who want to live further out from the city, you can also find jobs in popular suburbs including Cicero, Oak Park, and Evanston.
