About Power of the Purse
Power of the Purse is Women United’s signature fundraising event supporting United Way of Marathon County’s Bold Goal to lift 10,000 community members to financial stability by 2033.
The evening brings together women who care deeply about our community and believe that generosity can make a real difference locally. While Power of the Purse has a glamorous feel, its heart is rooted in philanthropy, connection, and shared purpose.
All proceeds from the event support United Way of Marathon County’s work to strengthen stability and opportunity for families across our community, including access to safe housing, quality childcare, and job readiness.
