United Way newleaders

United Way's newleaders program is a United Way effort to support emerging community leaders through networking, education and leadership development. All this takes place at quarterly events. Past events have included a visit to the Chinese Classical Garden followed by sake tasting at the Zen Gallery, a visit to the Oregon Historical Society and and an introduction to the development plans for The Brewery Blocks.

The goals of United Way newleaders are to

1. Build the capacity of emerging leaders to influence positive community change.
2. Instill in future leaders a commitment to volunteerism and community service.
3. Raise awareness and understanding among aspiring leaders about the importance of individual and corporate philanthropy in the community.
4. Provide opportunities for newleaders to meet successful business and civic leaders sharing experiences and exploring ideas.
5. Build a stronger, healthier community.
