Celebrating Inspiring Women in our Community

Each year, the Women of Distinction Luncheon brings our community together to celebrate the extraordinary women who lead with purpose, passion, and conviction. Our honorees represent far more than individual accomplishment — they are a powerful network of changemakers who uplift others and drive meaningful progress in Darien and Norwalk.

This year, we are proud to welcome keynote speaker Holly Hurd — entrepreneur, author, and founder of VentureMom.com. Holly began her career managing her own hedge fund at 23 before dedicating the past 15 years to championing women entrepreneurs. She is the author of the bestselling VentureMom: From Idea to Income in Just 12 Weeks and her newest book, The Life-Changing Power of One Question — a powerful framework for anyone standing at a crossroads and ready to reshape their path.

Every ticket and sponsorship purchased supports YWCA Darien/Norwalk's programs that empower women and families in our community throughout the year.

We hope you'll join us on Friday, June 5, 11:30 AM at Shorehaven Golf Club for an afternoon of inspiration, connection, and celebration.

Thank You to our 2026 Sponsors
