United Way's LINC hosted 30+ young professionals for Intern Day at Catalpa Health! Workplaces in the Fox Cities attract some of the brightest interns around. Thank you to our presenters for sharing how we can all make our community and workplace cultures even better.

Meet Adam Hatlak, our Emerging Leaders Vice-Chair! Since 2020, Adam has helped the EL committee plan events and seek new ways for young professionals to build a stronger Fox Cities. He’s also been involved in his company’s United Way campaign at Miller Electric Mfg. LLC for the past few years. "I was motivated to get involved because United Way focuses on spreading the help across the community — making an impact with many other organizations. I've learned a lot about the needs in our community and the organizations we have that can help." We're excited to see Adam's leadership propel Emerging Leaders into the future.

With Emerging Leaders and LINC advocating for positive change in the Fox Cities, we can do so much more. Here's to a successful 2024 campaign! ??

Spring into Summer was a treasure trove of family fun! Nearly 500 people joined us on Saturday channel their inner pirate and enjoy the summer sun. As Emerging Leaders, we were proud to provide books and other resources for your families. Here's to a summer of learning and growing!

We've been lucky enough to have Morgan Hilgart as one of the first LINC Co-Chairs. Your dedication to this community has paved the way, Morgan! Thank you for serving such a meaningful term as Co-Chair for this group of young philanthropists!

Thanks to a group of EL volunteers, over 3,000 books are ready for new homes at the upcoming Spring into Summer Family Festival! Make a splash with us on May 18 to explore summer resources and fun with your families. From 10 a.m. - 1 p.m. at Fritsch Park, we'll have an adventure filled with books, STEM activities, giveaways, and more. ?? Emerging Leaders, some volunteer slots are still open for the event! Help local families share their first memories of summer: https://bit.ly/3wagHlr

Friday was so bittersweet as Ryan Batley led his last meeting as Emerging Leaders Chair! Ryan's longstanding commitment to Emerging Leaders and United Way has helped nurture the next generation of philanthropists. As incoming Chair Vaya Jones wrote, "It’s quite difficult to put into words what his service has meant." Thank you, Ryan!
