As an integral part of United Way Tucson and Southern Arizona, we strive to cultivate a future where every child has the power to embrace diverse perspectives, access opportunities for success, and unlock their full potential.

OUR PURPOSE

We understand the importance early childhood education plays in fostering economic and workforce development. With 39% of Pima County children unable to read at grade level by 3rd grade*, early investment is crucial.

OUR PRACTICE

Women United combines the financial power and collective talents of local philanthropic women leaders to address early childhood education in our community. Our signature event, the Business Breakfast, raises more than $120,000 for early childhood education in Tucson and hosts over 500 attendees annually.

OUR IMPACT

My Summer Library

My Summer Library ignites the passion for reading by hosting Scholastic book fairs across multiple sites in Southern Arizona. Here, kindergarten and first-grade students are welcome to select 12 captivating books – free of charge.

In 2025, we provided over 21,6000 books to a total of 1,800 kids through the collective efforts of 148 dedicated volunteers.
