Public
Invited to Free “Around the World Wine-tasting,” Charity Event on September 23
KidsPeace Foster Care associates and capitol area tastemakers will be gathering in Laurel, MD, on Thursday,
Sept. 23, to help local children in need. A special fundraiser and free
wine-tasting at Corridor Fine Wine in Laurel will benefit hundreds of
Washington and Maryland children in foster care and adoption programs run by
the national children’s charity KidsPeace.
The
public is invited between 6 and 9 p.m. to enjoy the evening’s “Around the
World Wine Tasting,” featuring upscale
wines and champagnes from five countries.
The tasting is free, and 30 percent of all wine sales generated that night, as well as all silent auction proceeds
will be donated to KidsPeace.
“This event is for
people with a thirst, not just for the finer things in life, but for helping
children, many of whom don’t have even the basics such as a home and a loving
adult to guide their way,” said Steve Faith, Vice President of Wine Operations
for Corridor Fine Wine.
“It’s not every
day you get to take a trip around the globe,” according to Diane Sancilio, KidsPeace Manager
of Foster Care and Community Programs. “And at the same time do a world of good
to benefit our children.”
Save the date and plan to attend to feel good while doing some good and benefit hundreds of
children in the Baltimore and Washington areas. The event is on September 23
from 6:00-9:00 p.m. at 3321 Corridor
Marketplace, Laurel, MD 20724. For directions, call 301-617-8507.
