Women United

Women United is a dedicated group of women who strengthen our community by giving, advocating and volunteering. Women United is at the heart of United Way. Together, we are helping people learn more, earn more and lead safe and healthy lives. Members enjoy luncheons, special events and educational, volunteer and social networking opportunities throughout the year.

THE POWER OF WOMEN

Women United members are part of a nationwide effort of women who, through their collective support for United Way, are changing conditions and improving lives in communities across the United States.

Women United members have a tremendous capacity for positive change:

• The IRS reports that 43% of the country’s top wealth holders are women.
• It’s estimated that there are 10.1 million businesses in the U.S that are privately held and 50% or more women-owned.
• In 2008-09, nearly 60% of all advanced degrees awarded were received by women.
• Women have the resources and power to make a difference!
