The Importance of Dependable Transportation
Having access to reliable transportation is essential for individuals as it allows them to get to work, school, medical appointments, training opportunities, and other critical resources. It also provides greater opportunities for social and economic growth.
The Women Who Rule campaign, led by United Way WOMEN UNITED®, is committed to this endeavor through fundraising and awareness. Women leaders and local change-makers from all backgrounds inspire others to donate and serve their community in new ways.
We hope to see you at our Women Who Rule Campaign luncheon, where we will celebrate women’s achievements, encourage one another, and raise funds for the WOMEN UNITED® Transportation Fund. If you miss the event, don’t worry—you can still contribute to this worthy cause.
Fuel the Fund
The WOMEN UNITED® Transportation Fund provides gas cards, bus passes, minor car repairs, and more to help increase access to reliable transportation.
As part of the Women Who Rule Luncheon, we’re offering a heartfelt way to celebrate the incredible women who inspire you. With a donation of $150 or more to the Women United® Transportation Fund, you can honor a woman who rules in your life.
We will recognize your honoree on our social media with her photo and your message of appreciation.
