YWCA Darien/Norwalk's Cookies, Cocktails & a Cause

Non-members and members are invited to attend this fun-filled cookie swap and cocktail benefit that will be held from 7:30-9:30.  Advance ticket purchase is required at the YWCA Darien/Norwalk website.


Event festivities include a holiday cookie swap (which is optional) and cookie contest for those who bring a recipe.  Wine and other beverages will be served along with delicious hors d’oeuvres prepared by Michael Joseph's Catering.  Women who bring cookies for the swap and contest can take home an assortment of the cookies from other attendees.  Attendees can also get a head start on their holiday shopping at Nielsen's while they enjoy the festivities. 10% of the evening’s sales will be generously donated to the YW.


The centerpiece of the event will be a raffle of fantastic prizes donated by local merchants.  The proceeds will help fund YWCA Darien/Norwalk and its programs for women and families.  They include YWCA Parent Awareness with lectures to provide support and guidance to parents in our community and scholarships for the YWCA Job Search Support Program which provides women with the support and tools needed to find employment.
