Emerging Leaders
The Future of Philanthropy in Anchorage
United Way Emerging Leaders is a network of young professionals who share a passion for building a stronger Anchorage. Emerging Leaders channel their talents and energy through focused philanthropy, volunteer service, and education to make a difference in our community.

It all starts with a donation and a desire to make a difference!
