Annual Events

Women United Tea Party

The Women United Tea Party brings the power of women's generosity together for an unforgettable morning of tea, philanthropy, and wisdom.

Rooted in the belief that every woman has something to give—and something to learn from others—this signature event offers a meaningful way to connect, celebrate, and support our community.

Guests enjoy engaging panel conversations, interactive experiences, and thoughtfully curated themed auction packages, all while supporting opportunities for women in Pierce County.

Suit Her Up for Success Career Wear Drive

Because confidence is a tool—just like a résumé or a degree.

Because no woman should have to choose between groceries and a blazer.

Each year, Women United harnesses a passion for fashion to collect professional clothing and accessories for a free career-wear boutique.

This drive is about more than clothing. It's about helping women step confidently into new opportunities.

A full outfit. A fresh start. A powerful sense of “I belong.”
