The Top 10 Emerging Leader Fundraising Challenge:
Get Inspired. Take Action!
Congratulations 2025 Emerging Leaders and Students!
See you at the 2025 Gala!
Honoring 10 individuals, younger than 40, and up to 4 Student Leaders who are leaving an imprint on our community through their professional and fundraising efforts. “Emerging Leader Fundraising Challenge” is an innovative campaign that promotes community involvement while also generating financial support for local worthy causes.
“Leadership is not defined by titles or years of experience—it’s about action,
service, and impact. Emerging Leaders exists to celebrate those who dare to make a difference, to elevate those who uplift others, and to ignite a movement where giving back becomes second nature. Watching these leaders rise is a powerful reminder that change starts with individuals willing to lead the way.” – Emerging Leaders
