An International Movement
Women United is a robust and diverse network of more than 75,000 women in 165 communities across six countries, all dedicated to improving lives and creating stronger communities. These women make up the single most successful organization of its kind, having raised more than $1 billion since its inception in 2002 and affecting worldwide change in real ways. The contributions of these women go well beyond financial donations; they get involved, shake things up, and create positive change.
Locally
Our Women United group is over 300 women strong and focused on assuring all children are prepared for school and are given the tools to succeed in life. Although we are also part of the annual fundraising campaign, our fundraising activities are all directed specifically to our Women United educational programming.
Power of the Purse
Women United plans to host its seventh annual Power of the Purse Fundraiser on Thursday, June 19, 2025. The event will bring together hundreds of area women who want to build a stronger community by raising money for early childhood education.
The event will feature dozens of mid to high-end purses for auction. Proceeds from the event will go to fund Dolly Parton's Imagination Library in our community. The Imagination Library, which is available in all 55 counties in the state, provides one free book each month to children from birth to age 5.
