Loaned Executives
The perfect opportunity to build project management, public speaking, and other organizational skills while also giving back to the community.
Program Details
The Loaned Executive (LE) Program is a longstanding tradition providing participating companies the opportunity to offer valued employees and emerging leaders a unique experience to serve their community and grow as individuals and leaders. Loaned Executives serve as ambassadors for Valley of the Sun United Way (VSUW) within our local community throughout the year, primarily during our peak campaign season.
Loaned Executives work with United Way corporate relations managers and engagement staff to help create fundraising goals, design campaign strategies, execute engagement events and support corporate philanthropy in the Valley’s top companies. Collaboration between United Way and some of the Valley’s most respected companies brings tremendous value and supports corporate social responsibility goals, employee growth, recruitment, and retention and positions corporate brands in the community in a variety of positive ways.
