Leadership Circle
Leadership Circle
Across the country, leadership giving is the fastest growing segment of most company workplace campaigns. Recent surveys suggest companies that have a leadership giving program in place experience, on average 20 percent higher employee per capita giving than companies not using this technique. In the 2006 campaign, leadership giving at United Way of Northeast Florida represented nearly 52 percent of the total employee contibutions. In order for United Way to grow and continue to have an impact on this community, the number of Leadership Givers in the employee campaigns must continue to increase.
