For tickets: http://uwccr.org/InnovateandIgnite. \nThe local United Way’s Women United is a philanthropic network of more than 250 women who leverage their passions\, ideas\, expertise and resources to ensure foster youth are prepared for success in adulthood. Since its inception in 2002\, Women United has raised more than $2 million to help foster youth gain the skills and education they need to thrive. Through their signature initiative\, the Collegiate Guaranteed Income Program\, 20 former foster youth studying at Sacramento State and UC Davis receive $500 per month for one year\, along with access to mentorship\, financial coaching\, digital tools and wraparound support\, so students can cover basic needs like rent\, groceries and transportation while focusing on their education. For more information and to get involved: www.YourLocalUnitedWay.org/Get-Involved/Women-United. \nFor more than 100 years\, United Way California Capital Region has mobilized communities across Amador\, El Dorado\, Placer\, Sacramento and Yolo counties to create opportunities for children and families to thrive. Through programs focused on youth opportunity\, housing stability\, financial security and community resilience\, the local United Way has served more than 100\,000 people in the past five years alone. During that time\, more than 61\,000 children received support through United Way programs\, nearly 4\,000 individuals found or maintained stable housing\, nearly $4 million was distributed through guaranteed income initiatives\, and volunteer tax preparation services helped secure more than $41 million in tax refunds for local households.
