From the Westport Young Women’s League

Westport Young Woman's League (WYWL) has a new fundraiser, and it’s a sweet one! WYWL has been building community since 1956, and although this past year challenged traditional fundraising, WYWL is pioneering a new fundraiser to help those in need. WYWL is offering delicious Lyman Orchards homemade pies and cookies just in time for the holidays, with each purchase supporting the WYWL grants program that funds non-profit organizations in Westport and surrounding towns.

Now through November 23, 2021, orders may be placed with WYWL for a variety of pies and cookie dough, frozen fresh for delivery from 275-year-old Lyman Orchards of Middlefield, CT. Orders will be available for pick-up from WYWL members at the Westport VFW, 465 Riverside Ave., on Friday, December 17, 2021, from 10:30am - 1pm and Saturday, December 18, 2021, from 9am - 12pm.  These can be kept fresh in your freezer until you're ready to bake and serve, which is convenient for the holiday season or beyond.  

WYWL members will also be offering gift wrapping for the holidays for a recommended donation of $5 per gift. Gifts may be dropped off at the VFW on Friday, December 17, from 10:30am - 1pm, and Saturday, December 18, from 9am – 12pm; members of the WYWL will return gifts wrapped and ready for distribution.  Gift wrapping is on a first come, first serve basis. All donations are appreciated.
