Loaned and Sponsored Representative Program
Apply now for the 2013 Loaned and Sponsored Representative Program! Deadline to apply July 16, 2013.
Every year, United Way recruits 40 people to help support our fundraising campaigns at workplaces across the Lower Mainland. Representatives are an extension of our fundraising team and help manage our 775 company accounts.
The Loaned and Sponsored Rep program triples our fundraising staff at no extra cost to United Way and allows us to provide outstanding service to our donors.
Representatives gain valuable professional development during a fun, action-packed 16-week work term and help United Way raise funds to support over 450 programs and initiatives that prevent poverty, bullying and social isolation.
What’s the different between Loaned and Sponsored Representatives?
A Loaned Representative is an employee who is loaned (seconded) from their company to work for United Way for 16 weeks during the Fall fundraising campaign from September to December. Employees apply through their workplace and continue to be paid by their employer.
A Sponsored Representative is an individual who is hired by United Way, whose bi-weekly honorarium is paid for by a sponsoring organization.
The role and responsibilities are the same for both Loaned and Sponsored Representatives.
Term: August 23 - December 13, 2013
Training: August 23 - August 30, 2013
