Wine, Women, and Shoes® in Tulsa!
Philanthropy is one of my core values. And philanthropy that brings a smile to the faces of everyone involved is doubly good.
My wonderful friend, Elaine Honig, was recently in town doing her Wine, Women and Shoes event. It was spectacular. Elaine burst out with this concept about 5 years ago and brought it to Tulsa 4 years ago to benefit the YWCA. So far, they have raised over $4 million nationwide to support the YWCA's mission of eliminating racism and empowering women. I had no idea the YWCA helped refugees who come to Tulsa and runs a day care center in North Tulsa. So proud of her for committing herself to such meaningful work.
Elaine was also the driving marketing force at Honig Vineyards, of which you may have heard. She brought their delicious Sauvignon Blanc to Oklahoma about 15 years ago, and since then, it's become a staple on wine lists all over Tulsa and the United States.
Keep up to date on her latest philanthropic projects at the Wine, Women, and Shoes® website.
We raise our glasses to giving back!
