Download FlyerThe Loaned Executive (LE) Program provides an opportunity for companies to offer employees a unique learning experience with numerous benefits. Loaned executives serve as ambassadors for United Way within our local community throughout the year, primarily during our peak campaign season. They work with the 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.
For the first two weeks, loaned executives undergo training on communication, presentation skills and project management skills, plus interpersonal and management competencies. Participants become passionate advocates for the community by engaging in group volunteer projects, touring partner organizations, attending campaign cabinet meetings and speaking events with various audiences surrounding the work of Valley of the Sun United Way. Loaned Executives will also join a passionate group of more than 500 Loaned Executive Alumni who are provided year-round opportunities to engage, network and advocate for Mighty Change.
(40 hours per week for 16 weeks)
Loan your employee(s) to United Way and release them from day-to-day responsibilities for the duration of the program (July 31, 2023 - November 17, 2023). Full-time loaned executives manage multiple corporate accounts, assist with engagement events and work out of United Way’s office.
