What is Emerging Leaders United?
Emerging Leaders United (ELU) is a network of passionate, young professionals creating lasting impact in our community by supporting the mission of United Way of the Dutchess-Orange Region. It is our goal to inspire advocacy, philanthropy and volunteerism, while developing the potential in individuals to be a driving force for good in Dutchess and Orange Counties.
Want to Make a Difference?
ELU members are committed, compassionate and generous individuals who are dedicated to making a positive impact throughout our community. Members connect to their communities and each other through volunteerism, networking and fundraising events, professional development and educational opportunities.
