Recently I had the pleasure to meet with a wonderful young woman who is doing some great things to impact the people of LIBERIA, WEST AFRICA. I would love to showcase and promote her event Wine to Water Charity Wine Tasting which will fund the construction of DRINKING WELLS in key areas around Liberia. I think it’s so clever how she used the biblical reference of Jesus turning water to wine as a marketing tool for her event; and I will be front row and center dining and un”wining” with writer/publisher/humanitarian Ophelia S. Lewis and the other guests and sponsors. This is a perfect example of a GREAT fundraiser that raises AWARENESS as well as FUNDS!!! I will check back in with photos of the event HOSTED by S.H.A.D.E.S of Liberia… Stay Tuned
