Winter Wonderland Wine Down
On Wednesday, December 2, United Way Emerging Leaders held their bi-annual wine tasting fundraiser at the Azalea Manor in downtown Mobile. This event raised over $2,200 and all of the proceeds go to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library of Mobile County.
We would like to thank the following businesses for sponsoring this event:
- Azalea Manor
- Bottega Collection, Women’s Boutique
- Coastal Bank and Trust
- FlashMob Photobooth
- MH3
- Mobile Appliance
- Russell, Thompson, Butler, and Houston, CPAs
- World’s Gym, Midtown Mobile
We would also like to thank Paw Paw’s Medicine Cabinet for their entertainment and to all the businesses who donated items to the silent auction.
Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library was designed to encourage reading to preschool children. Each month after a child is registered-up until their 5th birthday-a carefully selected, age-appropriate book is sent to the child’s home. There is no cost to the family; UWSWA provides the books free of charge. Currently, children living in Choctaw County or Mobile County zip codes 36509, 36582, 36587, 36605, 36610, 36615, or 36617 are eligible. For more information or to register your child today, visit here.
