Women United Members
United Way of Central Iowa Women United members believe all children should start school ready to learn. Graduation from high school is an 18-year journey, beginning at birth.
Women United invests in research-based strategies that ensure children are ready for kindergarten –the first step in that journey. Since 2002, Women United contributions have exceeded $21 million to improve the network of care and learning that ensure young children are ready to succeed in school. More than 700 of central Iowa's most generous and influential women give their time, voice and resources to support quality early learning and provide opportunities for those who need it most.
Women of Tocqueville
Women of Tocqueville recognition is for Women United members who choose to designate to Women United at the Tocqueville Society level of $10,000 or more. You can also be recognized as a Woman of Tocqueville by choosing to designate to Women United as part of the Tocqueville Society step-up program, which starts at $5,000 with the commitment to step-up to $10,000 over a three-year period.
