United Way of Greater Kansas City – Women United
The Women United group of United Way has 650 members locally, and more than 55,000 globally, and it is open to anyone who donates $1,000 or more annually to United Way. The group was established in 2009 and continues to uplift women and make a positive impact on our area’s youngest residents. Their leadership and volunteerism is shown through events such as Purses for Promise, Refresh a Classroom, helping teachers at Richardson Early Learning Center and Woodland Early Learning Center; InCommon, an annual women’s small business marketplace; and a Season of Giving, where members volunteer at a local agency with a focus on early childhood development.
