er ToCqueville SoCieTyUnited Way established this society to recognize outstanding

volunteerism, to involve new and influential leadership, and to

encourage personal gifts by high-wealth individuals. The society’s

name was chosen because of Alexis de Tocqueville’s admiration

for the spirit of voluntary association and voluntary effort for the

common good, a spirit he admired in America and about which

he wrote enthusiastically.

The United Way Leaders Society features four distinct giving levels,

all deserving of praise for what they give back to their community.

The live oak, magnolia, Dogwood, and Azalea Circles hold the

names of all of the caring individuals who support this ever-growing

community. With their thoughtful donations of time and major gifts,

the community has been able to flourish with beautiful results.

Thank you, Leaders!
