Thank you so much to Karlo Estates Winery for the fundraising events they did these past months which raised $1069.75 towards our causes and Food to Share. Food to Share received $506.20 out of these funds for their Monday meals that are made for the seniors in our area. These funds were raised by giving us 10% of sales from wine sold by the glass from the Thanksgiving Jam, the Norris & Jones performance, the Snowsuit Fund, the Christmas Angel Program and the Halloween Party funds were raised for Food to Share. Thank you for making a difference to others in our communities. From right to left, Partner Saxe Brickenden, Winemaker Derek Barnett and Vintner Sherry Karlo and foodbank volunteer Dororthy Mitchell.
