Good news happens. This episode features a conversation about Emerging Leaders 365, a United Way of King County-sponsored group of more than 10,000 young adults passionate about engaging in a year of impact to support their neighbors. 

Emerging Leaders support local charities and small businesses, volunteer at nonprofit organizations, and engage in United Way’s Happy Hours & Hellos Series, which allows them to network with fellow professionals over refreshments while learning about United’s work.

The next Happy Hour and Hellos event is scheduled for October 14 at Nordstrom Southcenter. Hourglass recently sat down with Emerging Leader Auriella Varley and United Way associate director of marketing Taylor Roberson to discuss the impact of Emerging Leaders and the upcoming Happy Hour and Hellos.

We’ll also discuss a United Way Conversation for Change event this month with bestselling author Timothy Snyder and discuss a local volunteer opportunity. 

Thanks for tuning in!
