Wine tasting at Bistro St. Germain benefits Home Forever

It’s always fun to go wine tasting, but what if they threw in a buffet of delicious appetizers and desserts and the proceeds went to a really good cause?

That’s what Seal Beach’s Bistro St. Germain is planning on May 22. There will also be an silent auction and everything benefits Home Forever , a local non-profit that helps abused and neglected children and their families.

The event will be from 6 to 9 p.m. on a Monday night, when the Bistro is usually closed. Cost is $40 per person, which includes all the food and wine. People can pay at the door, but reservations can be made online at Bit.ly/H4EWineFundraiser.

Home Forever helps people in the foster process, aiding families in a myriad of ways. Its website says,  “We advocate for the RENEWAL of families to the way they were intended to be in order to create alternate histories so that children, families, communities and the world will flourish.

RENEW

Recruit and encourage individuals and churches to take an active role in foster care and adoption both in the US and around the world.

Equip families to effectively love children placed in their homes through foster care and adoption.

Network with other advocates who have dedicated time and resources to caring for children in need of permanent families.

Effect change by conducting foster/adoption related research and educating policy makers.

Promote the Well-being of children and parents by providing mentoring and resources.”
