Some call it the most important meal of the day. For Orange County United Way, the Women’s Philanthropy Fund Breakfast is arguably the most significant one of the year. This inspirational event is Orange County’s ultimate community-impact breakfast and has raised millions of dollars over the years to support local programs and services that empower at-risk OC families.
Families in Orange County face a unique set of interconnected issues that challenge student and family success. Low-wage jobs and our high cost of living can create housing instability that in turn negatively impacts academics and health.
Programs and services take a “two-generation” approach, tackling intergenerational poverty by aligning and coordinating programs to serve the needs of families together while producing sustainable outcomes for the neighborhood as a whole.
Among Orange County’s top breakfast fundraisers, this inspirational morning assembles philanthropists and community leaders each year to support the dynamic efforts of the Women’s Philanthropy Fund. Join us in helping local women and their families build self-sufficiency, investing in the next generation, and transforming lives in our community.

Women’s Philanthropy Fund Breakfast
“The Women’s Philanthropy Fund sounded a wake-up call explicitly inviting women to step up and support the advancement of women and children in our community. We believe that when a network of caring women unite their passion, purses, and power to change lives, anything is possible.”
Susan B. Parks
President & CEO, Orange County United Way
“There were times when I felt hopeless as a single mom raising three kids. It was because of individuals who grabbed me by the hand and ushered me to the finish line that I can stand before you and let you know that your contributions matter. The work that we’re doing here with United Way is changing lives.”
