Wine Stocking for Wine Pull at Overcome Gala
First, Ovarcome Non-Profit Inc. is holding an event to stock wine for its wine pull ahead of its Ovarcome Gala scheduled for later this year, on Wednesday at the Beckbrew Wine House. Not familiar with a wine pull? It's when an organization collects bottles of wine from attendees, and then the bottles are wrapped. From there, participants at the fundraising event purchase random bottles (in this case at the Gala) without knowing what kind of wine it is.
Attendees to the wine pull stocking event are asked to donate a bottle of wine, and then stay for a night of sipping wine and enjoying light snacks from the Beckbrew Wine House.
Ovarcome Non-Profit Inc. is an organization that aims to build awareness on ovarian cancer among women worldwide and to provide treatment support to underprivileged women in developing nations, according to the event organizer.
When: Wednesday, April 3, 6-8:30 p.m.
Where: Beckrew Wine House, 2409 W. Alabama St.
Price: $20
