Women United

WU banner

Women United is a committed group of women leaders working together to engage other women in our community. Women have a unique approach to giving and a desire to create true, lasting change. This initiative combines the benefits of a small giving circle with a trusted organization – United Way.  United Way’s research provides us with the knowledge and confidence that our efforts will enhance innovative programs and have the impact we desire.

Our mission is to mobilize the caring power of women to advance the common good in our communities.

When you join Women United you are joining a powerful network of caring and dedicated women and the most successful philanthropic effort of its kind. 

  • You will be a leader in helping the community to learn about the issues affecting women and their families and innovative programs addressing these issues. 

  • You will have the opportunity to volunteer your time and skills to projects we fund.

  • You will be invited to join in events and network with others who feel passionate about giving back to our community.

We invite you to be part of the change and ask for a contribution of $1,200 annually to United Way. Women United directly invests in United Way's On Track to Success program which is a youth empowerment program designed to increase educational attainment as a means to address generational poverty amongst youth.
