MD/DC CU Association "Wine Me Up" Event Raises Money for Training Grants
June 13, 2019
The 2019 Wine Me Up! event was our most successful ever. Generous donors contributed wine and nearly $5,000 in contributions for us to buy quality wine at 30% off from our friends at Total Wine and More™.
Add to that the raffle proceeds from the 6-liter Cabernet donated by Fred Caprio, and it was a real barn-burner!
Attendees (participants and vendors both) lined up to plunk down $20 and pull a covered bottle from among our wide selection. They didn't know what they'd pull - it could have been one of our bottles of Dom Perignon Champagne, or another of our bottles, many priced well over $50, and none worth less than $20! Everyone was a winner, especially the Foundation. We'll be using the proceeds to expand our training grants.
