Power of the Purse is a women-only event happening April 23 that celebrates style with purpose, all while supporting United Way of Southeast Missouri programs and initiatives that uplift women and families in our community.

This year’s theme, The Stories We Carry, honors the journeys women walk every day. Every woman has a story to tell, and every purse has been carried along her path. Join us as we share powerful, “purse”-onal stories from women who have faced adversity and impossible circumstances with grace, dignity, and strength, and learn how United Way of Southeast Missouri has been woven into the stories they carry.

Your event ticket includes an evening filled with a purse fashion show, live and silent purse auctions, a designer purse raffle, champagne, heavy hors d’oeuvres, a dessert bar, games, laughter, and meaningful connection. Event tickets and designer purse raffle tickets are available now.

A heartfelt thank you to Montgomery Bank, our first event sponsor, for helping bring this incredible night to life. Sponsorship opportunities are still available, and we invite local businesses to be part of an event that celebrates women and strengthens our community.
