Anyone who hangs out here on a regular basis, knows I mention Wine Festivals all the time. Not only because Dudette and I work them, but because they raise money for various charities. And, they educate everyday people about a great number of wines, what they are like, how they taste, what they go good with, how much they cost, and so forth.
Of course, we add the education of responsible drinking in the mix as well.
To show the impact such a fun and educational venture produces, this years numbers are in. For the four charities that benefit from the events, a total of almost half a million dollars was raised.
Not too shabby.
Not too sure which the bigger event is; the one raising the money, or presenting it to the charities?
Events happen.
