Alexis de Tocqueville Society

The United Way Tocqueville Society of Lee, Hendry, and Glades, was founded in 1991 by David Lucas. Members of the Tocqueville Society fulfill the 19th Century writings of Frenchman Alexis de Tocqueville by exhibiting the American philanthropic spirit.

The Society is comprised of givers at the $10,000 level and above. Tocqueville admired three elements in our society: liberty, equality, and the spirit of neighbor helping neighbor.

Tocqueville Society members are community champions and committed citizens dedicated to improving lives in our community and making it possible for people to achieve their full potential.

“As soon as individuals with a cause have found one another out, they combine. From that moment, they are no longer isolated people, but a power seen from afar, whose actions serve as an example and whose language is listened to.”
