Tocqueville Society

The Tocqueville Society is a very special group of committed philanthropists around the world who invest at least $10,000 annually in their United Ways. Historically these members are among United Way’s most longstanding and engaged partners.

Renowned French political philosopher Alexis de Tocqueville admired three elements in North American society: liberty, equality and the spirit of neighbor helping neighbor. These same elements are embraced in the French national motto: “Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité.” Tocqueville believed that by achieving these elements of democracy, all people would choose to pursue freedom, knowledge and prosperity, or indépendance, connaissance, and prospérité.

United Way of Lancaster County founded its Society in 1993 to afford leading, local contributors a vehicle to deepen their understanding of our community’s needs and connect with United Way’s most generous contributors to make change happen in Lancaster County. United Way of Lancaster County’s Tocqueville Society includes more than 50 members who invest nearly $1 million annually in this community.
