Request a Speaker – Community Engagement

Invite a United Way speaker from our bureau to help educate your team about issues in the community and inspire people to get involved. Our speakers come from a variety of backgrounds, each with a story unique to them. Having a speaker at an event, meeting, or activity builds empathy and understanding about the work of United Way of Calgary and Area and our community partners.
