Names in the News: Leadership Westchester Graduates 3 from New Rochelle

On June 28, 20 men and women will graduate as the 17th class of Leadership Westchester and join the alumni group of the Volunteer Center of the United Way.

Graduates and alumni represent great leaders from three sectors: business, nonprofit and public, said Amie Gettes of the Volunteer Center. "They feed our pipeline to nonprofits seeking board members and skilled-based volunteers and help answer critical community challenges."

At the event, the Volunteer Center of the United Way will also confer the honor of Alumnus of the Year on Doug Rogers, outgoing Chair of The Volunteer Center (class of 2009).
