Help Bring Friendship & Support to Isolated Elders in the Bay Area

Johnell's 40th Birthday Wine Tasting Fundraiser!!

Share:

$1,550 towards $1,500

It's time to celebrate!! Each year I do a birthday fundraiser to support the work of Little Brothers Friends of the Elderly. Join me this year and celebrating my 40th birthday at my 3rd annual wine tasting fundraiser! My dear friend Evan with North Berkeley Imports will guide us through a curated wine tasting experience with wines from small producers throughout Italy. We will sip, we will learn and we will enjoy wines from the region. Suggested donation is $50 - $100 per person.

All proceeds are donated directly to LBFE to support their incredible mission to alleviate isolation and loneliness amongst our older adults in San Francisco. The money raised will support programs including coordinating our visiting volunteers, rides to medical appointments, care kits with daily essentials and the tech allies program where volunteers teach older adults the digital skills they need to use the internet independently.

I have been a volunteer for almost 7 years and on the Board for 3 and hold this organization near and dear to my heart. The impact we have on our older adults lives through companionship and our extraordinary programs is truly life changing for them. I was matched with an older adult for 2 years, Raoul. We loved going to the movies, finding new books at the library, eating hamburgers and milkshakes, going for walks and being an open ear without judgement for whatever we wanted to share. I am so grateful for our friendship and time together because of the connection LBFE helped to make.

Join me and make a positive change in the lives of San Francisco elders.
