FROM THE CHAIRS CELEBRATING 35 YEARS: PARTNERS IN CHANGE

For 35 years, United Way of Central Maryland Tocqueville Society members have been a dedicated force for our region. As partners in change, we are champions for United Way, translating philanthropy into meaningful transformation for Central Maryland. We proudly stand among you, 532 Tocqueville members, who give generously, joyously, and strategically to United Way.

The impact of the Tocqueville Society is seen in the Family Centers where smiling faces light up the classrooms, the eviction prevention programs that keep our neighbors housed, the treatment courts that give our veterans the respect they so richly deserve, and so much more. We encourage you to connect others to the essential work of United Way and invite them to witness firsthand the transformational progress happening across this great region.

Our passion ignites progress, which paves the way for advancement and opportunity. You are the spark that powers something greater. Together, we create stronger communities, healthier families, and better lives. And we can’t thank you enough for your support.
