Who can join?
Any young professionals who want to make a difference, stand up for what they believe in and meet leaders and friends while doing so! Youthfulness is about how you live not when you were born.
Where do my donated dollars go?
All Emerging Leaders 365 perks and events are covered by our generous corporate sponsors so that every dollar you give goes directly to building a community where people have homes, students graduate and families are financially stable.
Once I join, for how long am I an Emerging Leaders 365 donor?
You are part of Emerging Leaders 365 for one full year (or 365 days) from the date that you make your gift. For example, if you make a gift of $365 to United Way on Dec. 1 2019, you are part of Emerging Leaders 365 until Dec. 1 2020.
My company matches my donations. How does that work?
We’re not currently set up to recognize workplace matches towards Emerging Leaders 365. However, we love that your company matches donations and encourage you to request a match for your $365. Double the $ = Double the impact!
I made a $365 gift and haven’t heard anything from you. What should I do?
Oh no! We’re so sorry. Sometimes our data processing lags behind. But fear not, we’ll get it straightened out as soon as we can. In the meantime, please contact EmergingLeaders@uwkc.org so that we can get you all taken care of.
