Join us at our 5th Annual Women United Investing in Impact luncheon. This annual event motivates attendees to make a difference in our community.

During the luncheon, Women United will award $75,000 to organizations helping women and girls acquire quality education, improve job skills or gain other opportunities to change their lives.

Our luncheon’s featured program — “Reimagining the Rules”— explores adaptability, resilience and breaking barriers in leadership and entrepreneurship. Tamiko Bailey, a disabled female veteran and award-winning small business owner of Bailey’s Premier Services, and Adam D. Powell, United Way of Tarrant County’s new president and CEO, will uncover the common challenges and unique approaches in business and nonprofit management during a conversation moderated by First Command Financial Services COO Kellie Richter. They’ll dive into shifting mindsets, embracing change, and finding new ways to support one another while pursuing success. You won’t want to miss this inspiring exchange on rewriting the playbook to thrive in these uncertain times.

LyTisa Greene was just 14 years old when her life changed forever. While her peers were trying to navigate the rigors of ninth grade algebra, LyTisa, also known as Lady, was trying to solve a different problem—she was going to be a mother. Instead of allowing teenage motherhood to define her, Lady used it to ignite her passion for improving maternal health in underserved communities.
