The 2024 Women United Breakfast on Wednesday, March 20, at Olivet Nazarene University, will feature an exciting lineup of local female speakers, sharing their insights on creating space for inclusion, as well as addressing burnout prevention and nurturing one’s well-being in a holistic way. A panel discussion also will feature accomplished local women breaking barriers in fields such as social work, law enforcement, entrepreneurship, healthcare, and manufacturing leadership. The program starts at 9 a.m. and concludes at noon. Doors open at 8:15 a.m., with a breakfast buffet from 8:15 – 9 a.m. Tickets may be purchased for $50 at https://go.rallyup.com/womenunited2024.
Every dollar raised during this event supports United Way of Kankakee and Iroquois Counties’ Women United Initiative, which addresses the biggest challenges facing women and children by investing in high-impact programs and responding to emerging needs in our community.
For the past eight years, our Women United Annual Breakfast has brought the community together to celebrate the power of women and girls in Kankakee and Iroquois Counties. In 2021, United Way of Kankakee and Iroquois Counties doubled down on its efforts to invest in programs and services that support the advancement of women and girls by launching the Women United Affinity Group. More than 60 women joined this call-to-action and have committed financially towards the initiative that supports programs impacting the lives of local women and girls.
