WINE TASTING FUNDRAISERs
Here’s how it works
We provide the venue, the wine and a knowledgeable pourer, as well as some promotional support. Your guests pay a nominal fee to sample a variety of wines from a particular winery or from a group of related wines. Bottles and books are both available for purchase to take home and enjoy. A portion of all tasting, store and wine sales are donated directly to your nonprofit 501(c)(3).
“I invited friends, ordered some light appetizers and set up a small raffle. Visible Voice handled the rest, which gave me time to mix and mingle with donors. In the end, combined ticket, retail wine, book and raffle sales, we cleared $650 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society in two hours.”
TIMING
We are open to the public Tuesday through Sunday, but depending on our bookings, we are available as a charity wine tasting venue 7 days a week. Charity tastings generally last 2 hours and are best suited to groups of 20 – 60 people.
CHARITY
Your charity’s portion of the proceeds:
$7 per wine flight
10% of all retail sales (books and bottled wine) while the event is taking place.
We recommend you organize a raffle or silent auction. Your organization keeps 100% of those monies raised.
Catering is available from Crust Pizza (located directly below us) at reduced, nonprofit rates.
FOOD
