Mother Daughter Tea

“A special moment in time for a mother and daughter….It’s the little moments that will last a lifetime.” – Cay Cowie

The debutante year begins in the spring with the Mother Daughter Tea, a tradition established by our founding members. At this intimate event, each Debutante is introduced to our DFA members and our history. To this day, DFA members continue to prepare the tea sandwiches from the original recipes handed down from 1966. Each year this intimate event is held in a member’s private residence.

I also love the humility of this gracious, generous group as they continue to prepare the food and flowers themselves — making business fun and a very special event for the debutantes and their mothers hosted in a member’s home

I so admire the continuity that is inspired between the generations of the Desert Foundation Auxiliary. It is with great love and pride that I see my mother and daughters join together in the connection we share in the DFA. The kind, charismatic and generous-spirited women are what make this organization so special.
