Each year, Loaned Executives (LE) are a vital component of our strategy. LE’s enthusiastically share the messages of our agencies to businesses and employees across the valley.
Our goals couldn’t be met without people like you to spread our mission and ask for support. With your support, about 20 hours on average of time invested over a few months makes a strong impact on our community.
The Loaned Executive program of Twin County United Way provides an opportunity for companies to offer their employees a unique learning experience. Loaned Executives receive training that develops organizational and public speaking skills and provides a unique networking experience in the business community.
