The Whirl: Evening of Giving 2024

On Aug. 26, Designed For Joy hosted its annual Evening of Giving, the organization’s biggest fundraiser of the year. The historic Merrimon-Wynne house provided a beautiful backdrop for the live band, silent auction, wine pull, live-painting and the display of featured Designed For Joy products. This fundraiser helps Designed For Joy hire more women in vulnerable positions and get them back on their feet.
