The Naples Woman’s Club is thrilled to unveil its highly anticipated Sip for a Cause, an extraordinary culinary experience dedicated to philanthropy and community impact. Taking place on January 15th and 16th, 2025, this two-day event will be hosted at The Maddox, Naples’ newest private luxury venue, promising a blend of fine dining, exquisite wines, and purposeful giving.
A Night of Elegance: The January 15th Patron Dinner
The festivities kick off with a five-course patron dinner on January 15th, curated by the acclaimed Chef Darren Vielleux. Known for his award-winning culinary artistry, Chef Vielleux has designed a menu that promises to tantalize the taste buds of even the most discerning gourmets. Each dish will be expertly paired with hand-selected wines, enhancing every bite with complementary flavors.
The evening also features an exclusive live auction, where guests can bid on an array of luxury packages, including one-of-a-kind dining experiences, bespoke travel opportunities, wellness retreats, and unique treasures. With limited seating available, this $500-per-person dinner offers an intimate and unforgettable experience—all for a greater cause. Proceeds will directly benefit the Harry Chapin Food Bank, the Collier Senior Center, and vital programs of the Naples Woman’s Club.
Double the Delight on January 16th
On January 16th, The Maddox will host two distinct Sip for a Cause events: a mid-day soiree and an evening affair, catering to a wide audience of food and wine enthusiasts. For $300 per person, attendees will savor gourmet wine and food stations, enjoy exclusive spirit tastings, and revel in lively entertainment. Another live auction will provide additional opportunities to support the cause.
These gatherings are a testament to the Naples Woman’s Club's innovative approach to fundraising—transforming fine dining into a mission-driven celebration.
