Mark your calendar now because Wine Down to benefit local charities is here again!

Wednesday, February 5, 2014 is the big event to benefit Noah’s Children.

Sponsored by Bon Secours Richmond Health System

You don’t want to miss this one. Join us at 6:30 pm at The Wine Loft in Short Pump (don’t worry, if you’re a little late, come on in any time!).

About Noah’s Children

Noah’s Children is Central Virginia’s only pediatric palliative care and hospice program. They serve infants, children and adolescents with serious illnesses and support their families.

At this time, they are able to care for all children who need hospice or palliative care without charging, thanks in part to donor support and the support of the Bon Secours Richmond Health System, which pays for administrative costs. The event will help raise money for this important cause – and  you will enjoy FREE appetizers (and we mean DELICIOUS!), discounted wines, and unbelievably awesome door prizes! RSVP on our Facebook page.
