In a time when many of us are feeling a call to action, Women United is an opportunity to personally invest in advancing causes affecting women and girls.
We leverage our collective strengths, resources and passion to empower women, inspire change and build stronger communities
As part of Women United you will guide the direction and impact of the group’s investment through our grant making process.
We provide direct support to the causes most important to you through one annual gift: streamlining the philanthropic process.
Members will vote on the distribution of funds raised through membership gifts resulting in support to organizations improving the lives of women and children like domestic violence shelters, leadership programs for girls or support for new mothers.
