Volunteer Training

Each year companies in Chemung County “loan” their employees and to United Way and many others volunteer their time to help coordinate workplace campaigns at no less than 140 organizations.

 

This helps to keep overhead low. After the training, Loaned Executives spend anywhere from 2 to 20 hours per week helping to run campaigns by meeting with company coordinators, delivering campaign materials, and making group presentations.

 

 

This training is offered to individuals who are the internal volunteers running the United Way Campaign in their workplace. Individuals attending this training receive education and materials to help run successful campaigns at their workplace. Should funds allow, Company Coordinators will visit selected funded programs.
