Established in 1999 under the leadership of Atlanta heroines Dr. Johnnetta B. Cole, Ann Stallard, and Anne Kaiser, Women United serves as the “go to“ place for women of all ages to create real and lasting change.

Supporters and members of Women United are United Way of Greater Atlanta’s partners in ensuring that women and families have equitable opportunities to live a healthy life and to acquire the education and skills they need to earn a sustaining wage so that they may achieve their full potential. This group engages with the Greater Atlanta community to support our Child Well-Being Agenda through financial contributions, volunteerism, and advocacy. By getting involved, you’re unlocking the potential of children, families and communities.

Women United membership is open to those who give $1000 or more annually.
