Dear Patrons,
On this “National Tree Day,” Grapes for Humanity is thrilled to announce our renewed partnership with Waddington’s Auctioneers for our 2024 Fine Wine Auction. This annual virtual event is scheduled to take place in Toronto from April 12 to April 22, 2024, concluding on Earth Day. The auction aims to raise funds for climate action and to support communities around the world. This year, the primary beneficiaries of the auction will be The Halo Trust, Tree Canada, and The Nature Conservancy of Canada.
Since initiating its virtual fundraising events in 2020, Grapes for Humanity has successfully raised over $1.4 million, making it the most successful charity wine auction in Canada. We are pleased to continue our support of Tree Canada and The Nature Conservancy of Canada for 2024 to address the pressing issue of climate change and The Halo Trust, which primarily works to clear landmines and other explosive devices left behind by conflicts.
Your generous support enables us to continue our important work. We invite you to contribute wine, which is tax-deductible, to bolster our efforts further. During these difficult times, every contribution is invaluable. We will send a donation form to you at a time that suits you. If you’d like to donate an item for our upcoming auction, please contact Pauline Fortier at paulinefortier@sympatico.ca. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration.
Please mark the date on your calendar. We will provide updates about the auction as it approaches. The event is set to feature an impressive array of items up for bid.
We thank you for your continued support and look forward to your participation in our 2024 Fine Wine Auction.
Sincerely,
The Board of Directors
