Valley Leadership Catalyze Empowers Arizona’s Leaders

To our valued community partners,

Applications for Catalyze Class 4 are now open! Catalyze is a six-month learning experience designed to empower Arizona’s leaders by providing them with the skills and tools they need to make a positive impact in our community. With a format that includes virtual learning sessions and in-person social events, participants are able to engage when and where it works best for them.

We would greatly appreciate your help in spreading the word! Here are four ways you can help:

1. Share the opportunity. Referral and word of mouth is how many people hear about VL’s programs, so we encourage you to share with your company and community organizations.
2. Schedule a presentation with our team. We’d love to schedule time to share more about Catalyze with your organization. Please contact Carrie Larson at carrie@valleyleadership.org for more information.
3. Participate in the program. Catalyze is a great way to stay updated on the issues while making valuable new connections with other Arizonans committed to strengthening our state. Apply by May 31st.
4. Do all of the above!

We’ve included a number of templates and resources in this toolkit. That includes:

• Email announcement
