Women United
comprises women who collaborate in
giving, volunteering, and advocating
alongside other like-minded women
dedicated to enhancing the well-being
of their community through
education, economic mobility, healthy living,
and access to basic needs.
You've heard or seen the phrase LIVE UNITED. We put it on everything we do here at Capital Area United Way, and it's the tag line for United Ways around the world for some time now. But have you ever wondered what it means? And how do you do it?
"LIVE UNITED" speaks to the core of United Way's philosophy. It's the directive to work together to improve the common good within our community. When we are united, we are working together to solve the problems that destabilize communities including lack of education, unstable sources of income, and health problems.
When we are united, we can make changes that would be impossible when we act alone.
To LIVE UNITED is as simple as becoming a part of the efforts to improve our community, to work with us toward creating opportunities for a better life for all. You can do this by giving, either of your time or of your treasure. Monetary donations are used to fund programs that build lasting change. Gifts of your time as a volunteer directly impacts lives of people around you. Your voice as an advocate for capital Area United Way helps ensure the ALICE population and the underserved have a voice in the policies that affect them. Advocacy helps shape public debate on important social issues, educates the community, and influences policy.
We invite you to join us as we proudly LIVE UNITED.
