Vangie Long is the Founder and CEO of Elevents Group LLC, a corporate meeting and events company she launched in 2015. Prior to starting her own business, Vangie worked at the San Francisco Stock Exchange and Bank of America, where she was a corporate client representative handling Fortune 500 companies. With a degree in economics and more than 25 years experience in both the financial and hospitality industries, Vangie is an expert, well-connected project and financial manager who pays keen attention to goals, results, and the customer experience.

Vangie has been active in her community for more than twenty years in a variety of capacities, spending much of her volunteer time in nonprofit leadership roles, leading project teams and chairing fundraising campaigns to create and foster safe and optimal environments for children and teens so they can achieve their potential. She has worked one-on-one with students in their classrooms, served as PTA president in several schools, fundraised for her church and the Boys & Girls Club, and has worked closely with the Lafayette Unified School District, Acalanes Union High School District, and Lafayette Partners In Education (formerly Lafayette Arts and Science Foundation). Vangie knows how to network with leaders in all industries and across all levels.

As a young Filipino who immigrated to the United States more than 40 years ago, Vangie truly appreciated her unlimited access to quality education. Early on, she developed a desire to give back by working with organizations that focused on education. Especially keen to work for underprivileged children, Vangie found the perfect fit with Yours Humanly. Today, she is fully immersed in education working on behalf of children and ensuring there is equity in educational resources and opportunities.

She is honored to join Yours Humanly and continue her support in promoting access to education, especially for disadvantaged children around the world. As Board Member, Vangie is fostering relationships with like-minded nonprofit partners and for-profit businesses seeking to fulfill their social responsibility commitments.
