About the Event:
We’re teaming up with some of the best wineries and local nonprofits to present our new and exciting event—the Vintners Celebration at The Redd on Salmon, 831 SE Salmon St in Portland.
On Sunday, October 17, 2021 from 4:00–7:00PM (PT), we will gather in person to wine, dine, and celebrate the incredible work of our nonprofit partners: Metropolitan Family Service, New Avenues for Youth, and Friends of the Children–Portland.
We’ll hear inspirational stories from our nonprofit partners and share opportunities for you to invest in their mission to serve children, youth, and families through direct gifts or a live auction. This world-class wine and culinary experience is an opportunity to be together in person, to celebrate, and be among friends—all for important and worthy causes.
