Our Wine Tasting Event has ended with a rousing success!
On May 8th, at Fenn Valley Vineyards & Wine Cellar, we celebrated our third annual Wine Tasting event. Each year, we are blown away by our community’s support, and this year was no exception! It was a night of good food, wine, and fun. Thank you for joining us in celebrating and supporting survivors of domestic violence.
We are so grateful for our generous guests and volunteers, and can't wait for next year!
