Testimonials

  • LA was one of the greatest things in my development as a leader and a new person in the Community. It challenged me about what I had assumed about myself and why I needed the others that were in this class with me! The number of times I have called on my classmates since my May graduation is too many to recall. EVERY one in that room I now consider leaders that will attack the issues that must be addressed!

Why Sponsor?

100% of the Leadership Albany organization and its programming is funded by the generous sponsorships of our local businesses and community leaders. Each class program day, transportation, food, class instruction and more is made possible by business sponsorships and class members' tuition. In addition, each year we offer tuition scholarships for those incoming class members who need assistance to participate in Leadership Albany.

We work with our corporate sponsors to ensure the training and experiences Leadership Albany are valuable for the class members. This makes the class members, upon graduation from Leadership Albany, more valuable members of their organizations and the community.  The intent that Leadership Albany shows to ensure that our classes are as diverse as possible, demonstrates that we are committed to bringing agents of change into every corner of our community.  The organization does not take this task lightly and it strives to make sure that the financial support and sponsorships that we receive are honored with zeal and devoted hope for our community and its continual improvement.  

If you or your company/organization is interested in becoming a sponsor for Leadership Albany, please let us know.  We are always looking to gratefully continue or earnestly establish partnerships with leaders and corporate citizens in our area.  For more information on which sponsorship opportunities are still available, please email us at Info@leadershipalbany.org and know that we look forward to partnering with you to help build a better community for us all.
