Off the Vine
Gala and Auction is proud to announce that proceeds
from the 2008 Wine Gala will benefit two community
organizations committed to enriching the lives of families
and children of East Texas. The original and founding beneficiary
is All Saints Episcopal School. In 2008, a portion of the
proceeds will be donated to the East Texas Crisis Center.
All Saints Episcopal School is an independent college preparatory school (4K-12) that develops excellence in academics, fine arts and athletics, while encouraging students to achieve their maximum potential within an environment that embraces diversity, fosters leadership, encourages service and nurtures spiritual growth.
All Saints Episcopal School is nurturing generations
of leaders. However, tuition dollars only cover 80% of the school's operating budget and the remainder must be accomplished by fundraising. Students lead by contributing to various community
organizations such as the Good Samaritan Foundation, American
Red Cross, Mercy Ships, PATH, the East Texas Food Bank, Susan
G. Komen, Samaritan's Purse, Habitat for Humanity, among
others. To see their contributions, please view our Community
Service Powerpoint. The powerpoint presentation
requires 2003 version of PowerPoint, or it will not view
correctly.
The East
Texas Crisis Center is a non-profit
organization established in 1978 with a mission dedicated
to providing safety, shelter, counseling and education
to victims of family violence and sexual assault. The
agency is committed to restoring dignity and purpose in
the lives of victims while promoting public compassion
and awareness to reduce violence in the community.
We invite you to join us for this
extraordinary event.
