Help Us Build a Thriving, Self-Sufficient Community!

Thank you for your support of United Way of the Lowcountry Women United!

Donations may be designated to a specific program:

Women United Scholarship Fund

Established in 2020, the Women United Scholarship Fund supports local, non-traditional female students pursuing a higher education degree at University of South Carolina Beaufort or Technical College of the Lowcountry. Through the support of women in the community, Women United has presented 15 local women with $1,000 scholarships each, totaling $15,000.

Operation Backpack

Operation Backpack is an initiative of Women United that provides local students in need with backpacks filled with school supplies. The group collaborates closely with school social workers to identify students who may not be receiving assistance from other organizations. In 2022, Operation Backpack provided more than 1,500 students with school supplies and backpacks. These students were able to start the school year off with the confidence they needed to succeed.

Mimi's Closets

Mimi’s Closets offer essential school and personal supplies to students in need during the school year. The initiative’s goal is to create special teacher supply closets stocked with donated school and personal items at schools throughout the Lowcountry. In addition to school supplies, Mimi’s Closets contains basic needs items such as pullups for preschoolers; toothpaste and toothbrushes; sanitary wipes, soap and sanitary hygiene products; first aid supplies; and more.

Breaking Barriers to Education

The Breaking Barriers to Education Fund seeks to help fulfill needs that would otherwise prevent a student from attending school or from reaching their full potential. The fund is administered by the United Way of the Lowcountry HELPLINE, which works with school officials to directly remove financial barriers that stand in the way of a child’s education.
