Party for a Cause

WOW! Look what women can do!

 

Party Ideas

Think about what you like to do anyway with friends. Is it going out for a drink? Gathering for a cup of tea, coffee? Ordering Thai food or pizza in? Meeting at a restaurant? Any of these can be shaped into a Party for a Cause. Below are some ideas!

• Potluck

  It can be as simple as asking your friends to bring their favorite dish, or you can try to preorganize to ensure that you have a selection including main dish, salad, dessert and so on.

• Carry Out Does It

  Make use of your neighborhood Chinese take out, Mexican restaurant or just your favorite spot that offers carry out. Order up a selection of hors d’oeuvres and a couple of main dishes to share.

• Restaurant Meet-Up

  Ask your friends to meet you at a restaurant you enjoy—it can be brunch, lunch or dinner. A spot that takes reservations (or never has a wait) is a good idea. Be sure you’re clear with them ahead of time about splitting the bill or treating your group.

• Brunch

  Put on the coffee, bake your favorite coffee cake, whip up a fruit salad, bake some eggs. Start the day right!

• Tea Party

  Offer a selection of teas accompanied by finger foods – small sandwiches, cookies, cakes – suggest friends wear hats and gloves.

• Chocolate Delight

  A perfect way to get your friends in a good mood! Prepare some brownies, chocolate-dipped strawberries, even a chocolate liqueur – or ask everyone to bring their favorite chocolate.

• Walk or Bike Ride

  Get together with friends for an outdoor (or indoor) activity followed by a rest at your place or a nearby cafe.
