Each year, Women & Wishes produces two major annual events, along with monthly social gatherings to successfully generate funds for our cause. The attendees have responded enthusiastically to our organization’s mission, and the enjoyment and camaraderie they have experienced at our affairs are main factors for our donors becoming loyal supporters. As a result, we have had a significant increase in our donor base and are excited about our continued growth.

Signature Events

Our two annual signature events are an "Afternoon Tea" and an evening dinner, “Diamonds & Dudes.” Each event is created in excellence to provide superb culinary offerings, artistic flair, and upscale ambiance at prestigious venues. The annual events also offer desirable auction items which have previously included helicopter rides, designer jewelry, autographed memorabilia and tickets to the Grammys.

Afternoon Tea

This is not your traditional tea…join us for an unusual respite from the everyday! Savor epicurean delights, an array of teas, and a lively afternoon of socializing. This event is held each fall, please be sure to check our calendar and mark the date.

Diamonds & Dudes

Our festive soirée honors a diverse group of philanthropic men who have actively impacted women and children of our community. Pair your favorite chic attire with diamonds, and be prepared to indulge your senses during a night of entertainment, dancing, libations and exceptional cuisine. You won’t want to miss this night each spring!

Monthly Socials

This is not your cookie cutter monthly gathering to raise funds! Each restaurant or venue has a great ambiance, savory tastings and our attendees fill in the rest with wonderful conversation and productive networking. Your $20 donation at the door includes a cocktail, appetizers and a chance to buy raffle tickets for valuable prizes such as golf lessons, abundant gift baskets, or restaurant gift certificates. These monthly socials provide you an opportunity to try out new venues in Broward and Palm Beach Counties, and to meet new people with common desires.

Here’s what people are saying about our events…

“I just want to tell all of you what an awesome event Diamonds and Dudes was last night. It was fun, lively, beautiful decor, and really put across the heart and mission of Women and Wishes. I am so happy to be a part of this organization and really look forward to joining in the effort with all of you going forward.” ~ Jan, Coral Springs, Florida (May 14, 2010)
