About this organization
Mission
To raise money for Sonoma County charities through wine related activities that are within the expertise of vintners and growers.
About
Co-production of Sonoma County's largest charity event, 'Sonoma Wine Country Weekend'. This annual event brought together over 200 of the county's top winemakers and growers, along with a collection of the area's best chefs. All proceeds benefit local Sonoma County charities. As a result of the 2016 event, the foundation was able to contribute more than $1.2 million to approximately 70 local charities. In addition, the foundation contributed more than $1.4 million to Sonoma County schools and other local charities in support of the foundation's 'Fund the Future' initiative. The goal of this multi-year program is to help Sonoma County increase the third grade literacy rate to 90% by 2018.
