Türkiye Earthquake Fundraising BYO Dinner
April 1, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm EDT
As you may be aware, my home country of Turkey recently experienced a devastating earthquake, and hundreds of thousands of people are in desperate need of assistance. In response, we are organizing a fundraising dinner at Benoit on April 1st at 6:00pm, and I would be honored to have your support.
This will be a high-end “bring your own bottle” event, so we encourage you to bring one of your favorite wines to share with the group. Mark O’Connell will be bringing a Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Romanée-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru 2009, and we would like the BYO bottles to be of similar caliber.
To contribute to the cause, we kindly request guests make a minimum $1000/pax donation to Bridge to Turkiye Fund, an great nonprofit organization that has set up a dedicated fund to provide aid to those affected by the earthquake. All donations are tax-deductible.
Seats are limited. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out to me ( ebru@ackerwines.com )
Even if you are not able to make it, any donation via the link above would be greatly appreciated!
We are looking forward to seeing you there and thank you in advance for your support towards this important cause to support victims of this disaster in my first home.
