be a volunteer angel & help get someone employed

Based in Florida, we're front and center on the unemployment news, and there's no question that we all have family, friends and colleagues who are unemployed, or who face unemployment or underemployment.

So, it's great to share an idea about a nonprofit effort designed to help: Job Angels ...each job angel commits to a single goal: to help just one person find meaningful employment. Job Angels uses LinkedIn to match the profiles of job seekers with job mentors who may be able to help them find a job. Job Angels has about 15,000 volunteers scouring LinkedIn profiles of Job Angels group members who they may be able to help. If you’re looking for a job, join the Job Angels LinkedIn group or follow Job Angels on twitter.

I know we all hate when folks suggest passing on a message to 10 friends, but in this case, it may make a world of difference.
