Volunteer Leaders

United Way of Southeast Louisiana is a volunteer-driven organization. We are governed by a local volunteer board of directors that represents every sector and region that United Way serves. From the Campaign Cabinet to leadership councils, volunteers are critical to raising the funds needed to support key issues that matter most to our community. 

*Volunteer needed: CPAs interested becoming a member of our Audit Committee, please send your resume to DebraM@UnitedWaySELA.org. The Audit Committee meets twice a year.
