Non-profit organizations certainly rely on volunteers to help at events and fundraisers, as well as some of the day-to-day activities and responsibilities - but most organizations also have paid positions on their staff.

One billionaire is wanting to invite eight people on a once in a lifetime trip around the moon.
I have always been fascinated with space. That s probably why I took three years of astronomy. Something about what s out there beyond Earth is intriguing. I often thought that it would be awesome to go into space, experience zero gravity, and to see if the Earth really is flat or not.
Thanks to one Japanese billionaire, that opportunity actually exists. As you might have heard, the first civilian mission to the Moon is scheduled to take place in 2023. Back in 2018, a Japanese billionaire named Yusaku Maezawa bought the rights to SpaceX s first passenger trip to the moon. Now, Yusaku is looking for eight random people from around the world to join him.

The Return of Cicadas Could Mean Copperheads Invading Your Yard
Ready or not, cicadas will be making a comeback soon. That could also lead to the possibility for copperheads invading your yard.
The Brood X Cicadas will be returning to Indiana after 17 years in late April or early May. They spend 16 - 17 years underground, then emerge for four to six weeks, lay their eggs and then they are gone again not to reemerge for another seventeen years. You ll see them climbing trees, bushes, fence post, anything that they can latch their claws into, and you ll definitely be hearing them as the males make that loud, familiar noise to attract females to mate.
