We all know that wine brings people together; we share a bottle of wine, we share a meal, we share a lot of fun. Well, since its inception Anytime Wines has shared its services, its shop, its wine with several charities in the area. The original owner of Anytime Wines, Bill O'Neal, was quite active in helping to raise money for different charitable organizations. Jennifer and I have tried to carry on that service by allowing a few needy charities to hold fund-raising events in the shop. We are happy to help out in any way we can, but these events are only successful if all of us participate...if all of us pull ourselves away from our television sets to come to the shop to support these charities and to have a good time meeting some fun people and drinking fine wine. Some of the charities we've helped are the Duke Brain Tumor Center, the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, Meals on Wheels, Wake County Women's Shelter, and Pawfect Match Dog Adoption/Rescue.
We have a couple of upcoming fund-raisers which I'll post in tomorrow's blog, so please keep your eyes open for these fun wine-tasting opportunities to help folks in our community.
