Welcome to 2025 Women United Power of the Purse Luncheon and Silent Auction. Whether this is your first year contributing or you have been a long-time donor, thank you for your support. Our events and impact would not be a success without you.

United as leaders, we bring individuals and businesses together to financially empower local women and their families. The ongoing effects from the pandemic, inflation and other factors continue to put a strain on households already walking a financial tightrope.

Proceeds from Women United Signature Events support programs, services and initiatives that help women and families get on the pathway to a financially secure future; connect individuals with skills and training for jobs in our region as well as provide the financial services and supports to achieve their goals. Visit https://unitedwayinc.org/results/ for community-level impact.

Making a tax-deductible contribution to the silent auction or drawing, is the perfect way to build your brand while making an impact on the lives of women and families in our community.

Thank you in advance for your support during this critical time.

Sincerely,

Julia Johnson Brinson and  Tara Linton
Power of the Purse Co-Chairs
