Enhance proficiency, promote ability,
increase visibility
These are just a few of the benefits employers receive when they loan or sponsor an executive for United Way's Loaned Executive program. Participation gives your company high visibility in a multi-million dollar campaign, provides executive training for employees, and impacts thousands of lives each year in our community.
It's a great opportunity for your business to LIVE UNITED by building a stronger workforce and a stronger community with a single investment. The 13-week program, which runs from August through mid-November, teaches employees how to manage business relationships, develop campaign strategies, conduct workplace presentations and cultivate new accounts. The Loaned Executives work onsite at United Way under the direction of experienced account executives.

Here's What Others Say About the Loaned
Executive Program:

| Sindy Cassidy |
"Loaned Executives help stretch the resources of the Heart of Florida United Way and directly impact the success of the annual campaign. Through their experience, employees develop leadership skills and enrich their pride and commitment to community giving. With such limited organizational resources today, we honor the local businesses who continue to step up to our call."

Sam Pero | "Over the years, Publix has committed dozens of associates to work on-site at United Way during the campaign. Supporting this program sets an example of how business leaders can get involved and become responsible community partner. Associates who've served as Loaned Executives return as more engaged and productive citizens. They also pass on their experience, which inevitably makes a difference in the lives of others."
