(WNY News Now) – United Way Executive Director Amy Rohler recognized for her role in uniting Chautauqua County’s communities and fostering collaboration.
The Board of Directors of the CHQ Chamber has selected Amy Rohler to receive the Pam Lydic Coalition Builder Award for 2024. Amy Rohler is Executive Director of the United Way of Chautauqua County. Under her leadership, the two United Ways of Chautauqua County merged after several years of successful partnership and shared services. She has been Executive Director of the United Way of Southern Chautauqua County for seven years and was previously the Executive Director of Community Helping Hands. She is passionate about problem-solving, collaboration and community change.
Amy has a Master of Religion from Yale Divinity School, a Master’s in Divinity from North Park Theological Seminary, and a Bachelor of Arts in English from Seattle Pacific University.

Pam Lydic was the very first President and CEO of the Chautauqua County Chamber of Commerce, having pulled together a variety of smaller community business organizations in order to strengthen the whole, financially and programmatically.
