Are you a woman looking to get involved in your community?
Women United members are community leaders who are focused on empowering and inspiring women to lead community-wide change that improves the lives of those in north central Iowa. Membership is comprised of caring citizens who contribute $250 or more annually to United Way of North Central Iowa.
On April 25, 2022, Women United hosted its first annual fundraising event, 100 Women United for Change. Together, we raised over $4,000 that will power programs that impact women-led households that live in poverty.
