Buy wine and have the proceeds go to charitable/coronavirus causes - Through June 30, 2020, 100% of the proceeds from the sale of the wines listed in the attachment (including any shipping charges) will go to charitable/coronavirus causes – likely Washington Food Fund, Seattle Foundation COVID-19 Response Fund, One Fair Wage Emergency Fund, Seattle Hospitality Emergency Fund, World Central Kitchen, Farestart, and UW Medicine Emergency Response Fund. Will provide evidence of donation to buyer, and happy to discuss donations going to buyer’s preferred charities. As of 6/27/20, $2,309 has been donated to the Washington Food Fund, Farestart, Mountaineer Food Bank (West Virginia), Northwest Harvest, Seattle Hospitality Emergency Fund, and World Central Kitchen thanks to those that have purchased wine! Let’s keep it going!
Free personal/contact-free delivery in/around Seattle. For those outside Seattle area in WA/OR, I frequently travel along I-5 between Bellingham and McMinnville and will provide free personal delivery (contact-free) on a mutually agreeable date.
As 100% of the proceeds are going to charitable causes, would greatly appreciate no other discounts off listed prices, which are generally lower than release prices/personal cost.
List of available wines updated. As of 4/13/20, $530 has been donated to the Washington Food Fund, Seattle Hospitality Emergency Fund, and World Central Kitchen thanks to those that have purchased wine! Let’s keep it going! Thanks.
To hopefully raise more $ for the charities noted in the OP and to make available to other WBers some board (and my) favorites, the available wines list in the OP has been updated (new wines marked blue) to include:
a case of aged OR Pinot, including Cameron, Goodfellow/Matello, Kelley Fox & Patty Green, AND the rare and delicious Water Scott “Rock Salt” Chardonnay (only selling as a case)PENDING
an Oregon Pinot 6 pack, including Goodfellow and Scott Paul (made by Kelley Fox) (only selling as a 6 pack)
a magnum of 2014 Thomas PN (purchased direct from winery) PENDING
a few bottles of aged California Pinot and Cab Sauv JOSEPH SWAN IS PENDING
a variety of aged CDP ALL PENDING
JJ Prum Auslese 2011 PENDING
awesome WA wines from Cadence and Kobayashi (best white wine I’ve had from WA by far) KOBAYASHI IS PENDING
Preference to local buyers (with free contact-free delivery!), but will ship at buyer’s cost and risk.
Bump. We started off strong ($2,059 raised and donated through May 5, 2020). Let’s keep it up to raise $ for worthwhile coronavirus charities while you can imbibe on some good wines (if you like OR PN, WA reds, or Cali reds).
Bump. I’ll leave the charity offer open until 6/30/20. $2,309 raised and donated through June 27, 2020!
The list in the OP is current EXCEPT the 2006 Stags Leap, 2006 Karl Lawrence, 2010 Gramercy Front & Center, 2010 Gramercy Cab Sauv and 2011 Gramercy Cab Sauv have been sold.
Please PM with interest as I won’t be checking this thread. Thanks.
