At the White Rose Leadership Institute, we believe that a strong community starts with strong leaders. Since our founding, we have been dedicated to empowering the people and organizations who move York County forward — the nonprofit changemakers, public servants, and community leaders who work every day to make this a place where everyone can thrive.

We invest in leadership at every level through hands-on learning experiences, collaborative initiatives, and community-driven programs that strengthen the social fabric of York County. Through flagship efforts like Give Local York and the York Federal Fellows, we help build capacity, inspire innovation, and mobilize collective impact.

Your support fuels more than programs — it powers possibility. When you give to the White Rose Leadership Institute, you are investing in:

  • Stronger nonprofits with sustainable futures

  • Innovative leaders who solve challenges with courage and collaboration

  • A more connected, resilient York County for generations to come

Together, we can build a culture of leadership that lifts us all.Thank you for believing in York — and in the people who lead it.

“Today the White Rose Leadership Institute is here because Bill Wolf had a vision and a dream that the legacy of York Federal Savings & Loan would have a continuing influence of strengthening the nonprofit community, because he knew that their leadership would strengthen the core fiber of our community.”

- Robert W. Pullo, Founder
