Most of us would like to work at for-profit companies because of the high salary they command and the bonuses that follow. While some of us actually choose to work at non-profit companies and probably make less money. Most of us do that not for the money but for the mission or principles. Sometimes it is not all about the money but doing something that actually makes a difference in someone else’s life.

I am currently working at a physical rehabilitation center, which is nationally recognized in the United States and is ranked as one of the best rehabilitation hospitals in America by US News and World Report. While most of my friends thought that it is a drug rehab, it is actually a hospital that treat patients that are physically challenged, have spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, gun shot wound victims, diabetics, TB, etc. Our company has been around for at lease a hundred years and has helped thousands of patients throughout those years. However, because of the budget crisis, our company has been trying to cut back on a lot of expenses to balance the budget.

Anyways, I like working for this company because of the fact that we have changed a lot of people’s lives by giving them hope!
