Daily Endeavor’s founder Matthew Mahoney says the sites is focusing on content in the social change areas such as education, microfinance and human rights. Ultimately, the site’s goal is to profile 100,000 types of jobs over the next 3 years.

The site also has an existing companion business, EdeavorPrep, that advises students and job seekers with career advice.
