All For A Good Cause
The New York City Wine & Food Festi-
val offers a whole lot of fun, but it’s wor-
thy to note that all of the proceeds from
the weekend’s revelry go to food-related
charities, benefiting Share Our Strength,
the national organization dedicated to
combating childhood hunger, and Food
Bank for New York City, which helps
feed the hungry across all five boroughs.
“
We at Southern understand how impor-
tant is to be active in giving back to the
communities in which we do business.
It’s great that the money we raise from
the festival goes right back into our lo-
cal community to fight hunger here,”
Dunne says. “We hope to raise over $1
million this year.”
