PARTNERSHIP WITH CHILDREN HOSTS FIRST EVER AUTUMN WINE TASTING BENEFIT  
On the evening of September 22, 2003, Partnership with Children hosted our first ever Wine Tasting Benefit with great success. Co-chaired by Allison Bodenmann and Robert Dahill, and held in the elegant 200 Fifth Club, a crowd of board members, sponsors, and distinguished guests gathered in support of our organization and the children we serve. The event raised $57,000.
Courtesy of Divine Grapes, guests enjoyed a wide variety of over 75 fine wines, scotches and liquors from all over the world. Vintners included T.Edwards, Aldegheri, Duck Pond, Willow Glen, Bargetto and Palmer Vineyards, among others. To complement the wines, guests sampled hors d'oeuvres from a delicious Tuscan buffet. The evening was completed with a selection of scotches from Belvenie Scotch as well as a coffee tasting courtesy of Starbucks. An exciting silent auction was also conducted. Lots included gift certificates to superb restaurants from around the city, as well as a selection of wines, gift baskets and crystal wine glasses, all generously donated. Partnership with Children would like to thank our sponsors and everyone who made the evening so enjoyable and successful. We look forward to seeing everyone at our next event! | |||||||||
