On-line donations must be made by November 15, 2020; because of the pandemic this replaces annual fall Wine & Dine Gala that has been held the last eight years; funds will be used to purchase vineyard equipment
The on-line crowdfunding campaign for the Southwest Wine Center has raised 71 percent of its goal of $15,000. Twenty-nine supporters have donated $10,780. The campaign closes out November 15.
Recall that over the past eight years the Yavapai College Foundation and the Friends of the Southwest Wine Center have held the annual Wine & Dine Gala in October. However, because of the pandemic, the Gala could not be held this year.
For this campaign, the College asked the Southwest Wine Center Director, Michael Pierce, for a list of equipment that “will assist the students and staff in the vineyard now and into the future.” He provided the list and the donations from this campaign will go to purchase the items on it.
