What We Do
Women United members give, advocate, and volunteer to support programs that advance single mothers and their children.
We invest our members’ contributions directly into programs that support our mission. We do this through the oversight of our Investment Committee.
We organize fundraisers, network with community leaders, and advocate for policies that support families. We are Women United in action!
As a giving group of the United Way of Southern Maine, we are able to leverage the organization’s rich history, resources, knowledge, and relationships to achieve the highest impact.
“I am proud of myself because of Project WIN. [Before Project WIN] I was afraid and stayed home, and now I am an independent woman.”
