Dignity Starts With Feeling Clean

Feeling clean affects how you move through the world.
It shapes confidence, health, and how others respond to you.

A hygiene kit can change someone’s day by removing one quiet barrier—the moment before an appointment, the walk into a shelter, the hesitation that comes from already feeling exposed.

1st Annual Women United Tea Party

The Women United Tea Party is a gathering of women, wisdom and conversation, bringing together women who care about helping Pierce County families build lasting financial stability. Your attendance helps create space for honest conversation, connection and shared learning.

Join us at the Greenhouse at Farm12 for an elegant tea party benefitting families in our community through United Way of Pierce County.

Powerfully Unapologetic: Women, Power & the Rooms We Shape

Join us for Powerfully Unapologetic: Women, Power & the Rooms We Shape, a thought-provoking panel discussion exploring how women can show up in powerful—and sometimes unexpected—ways in leadership and community spaces.

Hear from inspiring leaders who are shaping the rooms they enter and creating new pathways for others to follow.

Sparkle & Shine Galentine

Every January, communities around the world honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s life and legacy by embracing the volunteer spirit and working to improve the places they call home. This day serves as a powerful reminder to empower individuals, strengthen communities, bridge barriers, and create solutions to social challenges.

This year, United Way of Pierce County aims to inspire acts of kindness and empathy. Martin Luther King, Jr. Month is the perfect opportunity to reflect on how we can make a difference—and to take action.
