Speaker

Jill M. Michal, President and Chief Executive Officer, United Way of Southeastern PA

Jill MichalJill is wrapping up a very busy first year as President and CEO of United Way of Southeastern Pennsylvania. In addition to spearheading the annual fund raising campaign and leading an organization of 100 employees, Jill led a community wide effort of volunteers to change the United Way business plan to focus United Way efforts on Education for Children, Income for Families and Health for Seniors while putting in place metrics for funding that deliver measurable change and measurable results.

Under Jill’s leadership, United Way has shifted from an organization that simply made grants to one that truly makes change. With a value proposition that challenges United Way to become a change agent that brings together community, business, government and labor, Jill believes we need to break the cycle of broken systems in this region by focusing on the root causes of our most serious challenges. By defining ourselves more by the problems we are trying to solve than the organization or constituency we represent, Jill looks to make United Way the table around which the community gathers to make it happen.

It was during her early days at United Way that Jill caught the passion of the staff and the mission. Prior to taking on the top spot, Jill served as United Way’s Director of Finance, Vice President of Finance and Operations and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. She oversaw Finance, Information Technology, Human Resources, Building and Administration as well as certain aspects of Community Impact, Donor Research and Information Services. In addition, she has been an important figure on the national scene as a leader with the United Way of America Financial Issues Committee, a group of senior financial staff from United Ways across the country that develop financial standards and guidelines for United Way in all 50 states.

Jill began her career with Arthur Andersen, LLP, and was with the firm for approximately eight years focusing on healthcare and nonprofits, leaving to join United Way in December 2001. Jill is a graduate of Penn State University, a proud Nittany Lion with a Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting and a member of the AICPA and PICPA. Jill serves as a Board Member of the Greater Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce, Philadelphia Council for College and Career Success and the nationally recognized Back on My Feet. She also serves on the Audit Committee of the Philadelphia Jewish Federation, the Advisory Board of Graduate!Philadelphia and the Finance Committee of the Delaware Valley Grantmaker. Jill is fast becoming the personification of what it means to LIVE UNITED.
