Main Content

The Alexis de Tocqueville Society is named for the 19th century French historian who admired American’s unique spirit of volunteerism.  He saw volunteerism as a way of life that was characteristic of Americans.

The members of the Alexis de Tocqueville Society are a special group of influential individuals who partner with the United Way of Greater Knoxville to make this a strong and healthy community. Through their compassion and philanthropy, these individuals demonstrate exceptional generosity and leadership, and provide the momentum for lasting change in our region.
