"I wanted to be a part of the driving force that brought forth change to our community"
“We partnered with Oakland Mills United because of the promise their organization showed and our common goals of enriching the experiences and lives of students within the Oakland Mills community. OMU has put that promise into practice through advocacy and direct programming reaching students in Oakland Mills and beyond. We are proud to partner with OMU for the good of our community.”
True to our organizational mission, we are proud to be an organization that is run by student and young adult leaders.
Oakland Mills United is a mainly volunteer run organization. However, with our efforts in the community becoming recognized we hope to offer all staff members a financial stipend for the work put into this organization. Grant funding has allowed allowed Oakland Mills United to begin paying staff directly supporting funded programming!
All staff members are provided professional development and growth opportunities during their time with Oakland Mills United along with credible work experience operating and working for a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that is based in Howard County, Maryland.
We offer a flexible work schedule that is untraditional compared to the standard 9 - 5 which allows our staff to support making a difference in our community! While we are shifting into an in-person programming environment, we offer all team members hybrid and virtual opportunities. This has allowed us to have team members working all across the United States from California to New York to Maryland and beyond!
