An opportunity to grow and give back
The Corporate Campaign Representative Program is a unique engagement opportunity for potential leaders in your organization. Confident, innovative and with a commitment to creating more vibrant neighbourhoods in which we work and live, Corporate Campaign Representatives contribute to the success of our annual United Way fundraising campaign.
Get Involved with our Program
There are two ways that corporate partners can participate in our Corporate Campaign Representative Program:
Provide a Corporate Campaign Representative
Under the management and guidance of a professional fundraiser, Corporate Campaign Representatives play a crucial role in supporting and inspiring more than 700 workplace campaigns across our region to fight local poverty. While working with United Way, Corporate Campaign Representatives have the opportunity to develop valuable skills including public speaking, time management, project management, customer relations and teamwork — all while engaging with their local community.
Employees are seconded to United Way Greater Toronto from September to December.. A seconded employee’s salary, expenses and benefits continue to be paid by their employer, while day-to-day management is the responsibility of United Way.
Provide financial support
