Langloh Recognized as a Power 60 Influencer for 2024
Story
Drew Langloh is instrumental in shaping the future of Birmingham and making a significant impact on the area’s economy. And the Birmingham Business Journal (BBJ) agrees. The publication recently recognized Langloh, President and CEO of United Way of Central Alabama (UWCA), as a “2024 Power 60 Influencer.”
Langloh’s inclusion among the Power 60 is testament to his unwavering commitment to serving the underserved and his remarkable leadership at UWCA.
With a degree in social work from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, and an MBA from Samford University, Langloh embarked on his journey with United Way in 1988. Since then, he has played pivotal roles at several organizations, including Vice President of Resource Development at UWCA, Senior Vice President of Resource Development and Marketing at United Way of Central Maryland and President and Chief Professional Officer at United Way of Delaware.
Since returning to Birmingham in 2008, Langloh has led UWCA (Birmingham’s largest nonprofit) with a visionary approach aimed at addressing complex social issues through collaborative efforts. Under his leadership, the organization generates approximately $40 million each year for community support and secures even more in grant funding for vital programs and services.
Additionally, in March of this year, Langloh played a crucial role in helping UWCA win its largest single grant ever, totaling $4.2 million. This funding supports initiatives that combat veteran homelessness throughout Central Alabama and beyond.
Langloh’s belief in the power of collaboration – bringing nonprofits, businesses and community groups together for a common purpose — underscores his dedication to creating lasting, positive change. His inclusion on the Power 60 list is well-deserved recognition of his tireless work and leadership in helping United Way make a tangible difference in people’s lives and create a stronger, more vibrant community for us all.
