Join Us! Livingston County Power of the Purse on April 7
Sometimes the most powerful moments of change happen when a community gathers together with a shared purpose.
That’s exactly what Power of the Purse is all about.
On Tuesday, April 7 from 5-7 p.m., community members will come together for a lively and inspiring evening hosted by Women United and the Livingston County United Way. The event brings together friends, neighbors, and local champions who care deeply about supporting families and helping young children thrive.
But Power of the Purse isn’t just a fun night out—it’s a meaningful opportunity to invest in the future of our community…and us here at Great Start Livingston!
Turning Purses into Possibilities
Power of the Purse is known for its exciting auctions and purse-themed fun. Guests can enjoy a silent auction, purse garage sale, and live auction, all featuring a variety of unique handbags and other items generously donated by community members and businesses.
It’s a chance to browse, bid, and maybe even go home with a new favorite purse—but the real prize is the difference these contributions make.
Every bid, every ticket, and every donation helps support local families.
Supporting Our Youngest Learners
Funds raised during Power of the Purse will help support our work with the Great Start Collaborative, which focuses on helping children from birth to age five get the strongest possible start in life.
Through partnerships across Livingston County, we work to connects families with important resources such as:
-
Free developmental screenings
-
Parenting support and education
-
Early literacy opportunities
-
Access to specialized services for children and families
These efforts ensure that every child has the opportunity to grow, learn, and thrive.
Whether you attend the Power of the Purse with friends, bid in the auction, or simply help spread the word, you are helping create opportunities for children and families in our community.
Join the Fun
We hope you’ll join us for this special evening filled with connection, excitement, and purpose.
