About

Speakers inform and inspire audiences through sharing their own compelling stories about the work of United Way and our partner agencies. Our volunteer speakers share their story to illustrate the needs of our community and help donors understand how their support makes a positive difference to the lives of people living in the Alberta Capital Region.

Presentations are about 10 minutes, but many speakers will stay for an informal Q&A session if you want to hear more.

A group size of 20 people minimum is required to book a speaker. If your audience is smaller, your campaign manager can provide a presentation, or you can share one of our impact videos.

We understand that each workplace campaign is unique and will do our best to match the most appropriate speaker for your group.

United Way’s Commitment to Reconciliation

We are all Treaty people. United Way acknowledges our connection to one another, here on Treaty 6 Territory and Métis Nation of Alberta Region #4. The diverse Indigenous Peoples of this land include the nêhiyawak, Blackfoot, Dene, Anishinaabe, Nakota Sioux, Inuit, and Métis. Many of our staff are settlers living and working in this Territory. We all have a responsibility to uphold the spirit and intent of the original treaties and build relationships, trust, and understanding. We are grateful for the resources, knowledge, and culture Indigenous people share with us as we walk the path towards reconciliation together. We honour and respect Indigenous contributions supporting our work to ensure no one in our community is left behind.
