Cultivating young leaders to improve our community
Emerging Leaders United (ELU) activates and champions young professionals to strengthen communities in Greater Baltimore. ELU members are inspired professionals who amplify their impact by connecting with other members and through professional development, volunteering, fundraising, and advocacy opportunities. We connect members to causes they care about and to organizations that are making a difference in our region.
United Way works for a more equitable future while empowering people to become self-sufficient by focusing on the necessities of a stable life: housing, health, employment, and education. ELU members work together and with United Way leadership and community partners to build resources needed to create long-term social change that improves lives and neighborhoods.
Join us for a variety of safe in-person and online professional development, educational and volunteer and networking events--while doing good!
The Emerging Leaders United (ELU) conference has evolved into a series of virtual and in-person events that will support young professionals to grow and practice the skills they need to be stronger professionals, volunteers, and community partners. Inspiring guest speakers will share how they are solving community challenges.
