United Way of the Chattahoochee Valley’s Loaned Executives toured United Way partner agencies and attended training sessions this week.
 
A Loaned Executive is loaned by a company to United Way to support the annual campaign. This person compliments volunteer campaign leadership and United Way staff with the primary responsibility of managing area workplace campaigns. Loaned Executives assist Employee Campaign Coordinators with the planning and implementation of successful United Way campaigns, increase understanding about how United Way works in our community to create lasting change, and achieve targeted campaign results within their assigned accounts.
 
Loaned Executives toured and learned about the United Way funded programs at Oxbow Meadows Environmental Learning Center, Hope Harbour, SafeHouse Ministries, The House of T.I.M.E., Salvation Army, Teen Advisors, Girls Inc., Open Door Community House, Homeless Resource Network, Twin Cedars, MercyMed, Easterseals, Feeding The Valley Food Bank and Boys & Girls Club. They also heard from representatives from Columbus Hospice, Ferst Foundation and Goodwill. They attended training sessions Thursday at W.C. Bradley.
