UNITED WAY OF DEKALB COUNTY TO HOST ANNUAL POWER OF THE PURSE LUNCHEON
DeKalb County, IN — The United Way of DeKalb County (UWDC) is excited to invite the community to its annual Power of the Purse luncheon, an inspiring event dedicated to empowering women and strengthening families across DeKalb County. The event will take place on Friday, April 25, 2025, at the historic Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum. Doors open at 11:00 a.m., with the program beginning promptly at 11:30 a.m.
Tickets go on sale at 8:00 a.m. on Monday, February 24, 2025, and can be purchased at https://secure.qgiv.com/for/unitedwayofdekalbcounty/event/2025powerofth… or by contacting the United Way of DeKalb County's office at (260) 927-0995. This popular event sells out quickly, so guests are encouraged to secure their seats early.
Power of the Purse is more than just a luncheon—it's an opportunity for community members to come together, enjoy a delightful meal, and raise funds for UWDC’s Early Learning Initiative, which provides young children in DeKalb County with access to high-quality educational opportunities that prepare them for success in school and beyond. Research shows that children who engage in early learning are more likely to excel academically, develop essential social skills, and build a foundation for lifelong achievement.
The event will feature an uplifting program, a delicious lunch, and an exciting raffle, where guests can win stylish handbags packed full of fabulous accessories, generously donated by local supporters. Every ticket purchased and every raffle entry submitted will directly support initiatives like early literacy programs, school readiness resources, and family engagement efforts designed to give every child in DeKalb County a strong start.
“We are thrilled to host Power of the Purse once again and direct the proceeds toward such a meaningful cause,” said Community Impact Coordinator, Kirby Cool. “By investing in early learning, we’re investing in the future of our community. Every child deserves the opportunity to thrive, and this event helps make that possible.”
Sponsorship opportunities are also available for businesses and individuals looking to maximize their impact.
Join us for an unforgettable morning of inspiration, community, and philanthropy. Together, we can ensure that every child in DeKalb County has the tools and support they need to succeed.
