UWWA's Peer Group Coaching Project
SPOKANE – Erica Hallock, President/CEO of the United Ways of Washington (UWWA), announced that thanks to a grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, 30 nonprofit executives from across the state will participate in a Peer Group Coaching Program.* The purpose of the program is to help leaders solve relevant, real-time problems, increase performance, strengthen leadership, build capacity, and transform their learning into measurable results for their organizations and communities. Participants will meet twice a month for six months, via Skype.
Each year, United Way of Pierce County partners with Pierce County schools to recognize and reward students for their volunteer efforts in the community. Students who volunteer 145 hours or more of service in a year can earn a school varsity letter, the same as those earned by athletes and musicians.More information -->
