The Young Women's Initiative exists to equip young women with the tools, community, and space they need to search for, discover, and align with their sense of purpose — empowering them to step into every chapter of their lives with clarity and confidence.

YWI Luxury Picnic

Launch Event · 2026

Luxury
Picnic & Panel

September 12th 10 am – 2 pm 36 E Hayestown Rd, Danbury, CT 06810

The Luxury Picnic is our grand opening — a sun-soaked morning at Candlewood Lake Park designed for women to connect over a luxurious picnic brunch. Enjoy curated lunch spreads, live music, and inspiring talks from Connecticut's most successful women: entrepreneurs, politicians, community leaders, executives, and researchers. We hope this event will give a new community a sense of the beauty, taste, social opportunities, and real value that they can take home with them in their personal and professional lives when they join our events. Explore a marketplace of women-owned vendors, and leave with new friends, new ideas, and a new sense of what's possible.
