At Hey Diddle Wines, we believe in the power of giving back to our community and we always strive to be involved in whatever we can to support those in need. That's why last week, we were honoured to sponsor and support the Little Heroes Foundation at the Bloom Winwood charity Gala event. Co-founder Tom Jonas is particularly involved in this initiative as he will be embarking on the trek of a lifetime to conquer the Kokoda trail this month in support of the foundation.
Last weeks event was nothing short of extraordinary, thanks to the presence and support of each and every one of our ticket holders. Together, we raised over $25,000, with $9,000 from ticket sales alone. This outstanding achievement speaks volumes about the power of coming together for a common goal.
The evening was made even more impactful by the touching story shared by Renee, whose courage and resilience served as a reminder of the importance of the work done by the Little Heroes Foundation. It was truly an honour to be a part of such an inspiring event.
We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Jack, Darcy, and the entire staff at Bloom Winwood for hosting a spectacular event. Their hard work and dedication ensured that the evening was a memorable success. The team were put to work serving up our best selling Shiraz, Rosé and Stubbies for all of the guests.
We also want to acknowledge the tireless efforts of the Little Heroes Foundation team, as well as Ben Hook, for their unwavering commitment to making a difference in the lives of children and families in need.
The evening would not have been complete without the delicious offerings from other fantastic food and beverage suppliers, Boylan Oysters, Smelly Cheese Co, Something Wild Gin, Auld Family Wines, Forage Supply Co. Your shared generosity provided guests with a delightful culinary experience that will be remembered for years to come.
All in all it was a fantastic night to be involved in and we wish Tom and his team all the best on the trek.
