The Troy Confectionery to Host a Benefit for UHPP

If you haven't been to the Confectionery (full name: Charles F. Lucas Confectionery & Wine Bar) in Troy, you need to get yourself over there as soon as possible.  It's an absolutely beautiful space, lovingly renovated in the classic Troy fashion; a little bit speakeasy, a little bit steampunk, but 100% awesome.  They have a great tapas menu and dozens of wonderful wines and beers to try-- they even have wine on tap, a fact that never ceases to delight me, for reasons that I cannot fully comprehend.

This is the second fundraiser that Upper Hudson Planned Parenthood's Young Leaders has had at the Confectionery.  The owners have been nothing but wonderful to us, and it's great to connect with such supportive community partners. It is UHPP's 80th anniversary year, and we're trying to get as many people out in support of the occasion as possible.

Last year's PPYL event at the Confectionery
The fundraiser will be held this Wednesday, April 23rd, from 6-9 PM.  We will be on their gorgeous patio, weather permitting, and a variety of cheeses and charcuterie will be provided for your nibbling pleasure.  Tickets are only $20 and are available for purchase at: http://uhppcocktails.eventbrite.com

For more information, please contact Amber at 518.512.9028 or by email at amber@uhpp.org.  We do hope to see you there!

Many thanks to Albany Medical Center, our PPYL sponsor for the third consecutive year!  We are so grateful for their continued support.
