Network Partners 2012: Emerging Leaders In Giving

The Minnesota Rising 2012 Un/Conference: Leveraging Expansive Leadership for Our Minnesota was held on Saturday, September 22, 2012 from 10:00AM – 4:30PM at DLR Group offices in Minneapolis, MN. Hosted by and for emerging leaders, the Un/Conference engaged emerging leaders across Minnesota in an energizing day of innovative learning and dialogue, skill-building, and network-building with their peers!

Minnesota Rising is pleased to collaborate with Network Partners, emerging leader group organizations, to help cross-promote our parallel efforts to provide leadership development and community-building. In our Network Partner Notes, we prompt and highlight our 2012 Un/Conference Network Partners in their own words!


ELIG is a growing network of young professionals who volunteer our time and effort in community and group activities that advance the common good.  We are an affinity group of United Way of Olmsted County.  Our vision is to build a future where young professionals are deeply engaged in contributing to the betterment of the community.  Our mission is uniting young professionals to promote volunteerism, community awareness, and relationship-building.

Our membership is made up of young professionals who live or work in Olmsted County.  We do not set an age limit, however most of our members are between 20-40 years of age.  Most of our members reside in Rochester. 

In October ELIG is helping children and adults in need in Olmsted County stay warm this winter! Winter OuterWear is a community-wide initiative that provides free winter outerwear to individuals and families that do not have the financial means to purchase them. 

Help keep families warm this winter!


Join other young professionals as we sort and inventory winter coats and outwear accessories on Monday, October 15th from 5:30-7:30 p.m. AND distribute winter items on Thursday, October 18th from 5:30-8:30 p.m. We need 20 volunteers on October 15th and 25 volunteers on October 18th. You can volunteer for one or both nights! http://volunteer.truist.com/olmsted/survey/?survey_id=10542425979
