leadership SOCIETY
United Way’s Leadership Society is a group of community leaders who donate $500 or more annually to United Way of Buffalo & Erie County. Members play an essential role in addressing our community’s most pressing needs through philanthropy, leadership, and volunteerism.
Board leadership training
Members receive a discount to our annual Board Leadership Training, which helps individuals understand the ins and outs of nonprofit board service. Participants hear from local nonprofit leaders, engage in hands-on activities, and have the opportunity to meet with organizations that are looking for new board members.
