Napa Valley Wine Auction: A Celebration of Giving Back
The Napa Valley wine auction is an annual event that has been held since 1981. It was started by a group of winemakers and vendors who wanted to give back to the community. The event quickly became popular, and more vintners and vendors joined in to support the cause. Today, thousands of people from around the world participate in the auction either in person or online, with over $230 million raised for local nonprofits over the years.
The Napa Valley wine auction is not just about buying wine; it’s also about giving back to the community. According to Donna Walker, Chairman of Napa Valley Vintners, the community’s dedication to the place is as strong as their commitment to their wines and vines. By participating in this event, individuals are contributing to the well-being of the community. The current focus of the auction is on student mental health, with a significant portion of students in Napa Valley experiencing mental health issues during the school year. Through this initiative, they aim to provide mental health services for students safely and free of charge through school sites.
The success of this event depends on everyone’s contribution – from local winemakers, chefs, and volunteers who organize it all, to attendees who enjoy excellent food, wine, and camaraderie while also supporting a good cause. Cyril Chappellet, CEO/Chairman of Chappellet emphasized that participation in this event means more than just buying a product; it’s about being part of something bigger than yourself. Jennifer Stewart from Napa Valley Education shared how grateful they are for donors who support their mission of helping students grow mentally healthy and strong.
