A Look Back: 2011 UWYLS Kickoff Luncheon

The United Way Young Leaders Campaign Kickoff Luncheon was a huge success! Thank you to Kimberly Jackson and the Membership & Community Development Committee for putting on such a wonderful lunch.

Thank you to Alabama Power for sponsoring the event and to Robert Aland, the 2011 United Way Campaign Chair, for speaking to the group. The purpose of the lunch was to ensure that all Young Leaders are engaged in the United Way campaign and in giving back to the community. We want to be part of the change and want to encourage all Young Leaders to give to the campaign and to give their time through volunteerism. Robert Aland spoke of his own personal experience in supporting the community and why we as young professionals should step up and give back to those in need.

Matt Chapman, UWYLS president

April Helms and Bob Ashburner, UWYLS Steering Committee
