Vintners from around the world will donate and pour their finest wines, thanks to ABC Fine Wine & Spirits. Hundreds of wines will be available. Please join us by inviting friends and colleagues, sponsoring a table and contributing auction items.

The Premise
Several years ago, Valencia Foundation's board of directors agreed to host a fundraiser only if we could ensure that every single dollar donated for sponsorships, tickets and auction receipts went directly to scholarships. The contributions are then eligible to earn dollar-for-dollar match, effectively doubling the benefactor's investment.

Valencia/UCF Partnership
In 2009, Valencia Foundation and UCF Foundation began a joint philanthropic partnership to benefit our 2+2 scholarships for DirectConnect, which guarantees Valencia graduates a seat at UCF.

The Concept
Every item must be donated - from the gourmet food to the international wines poured by their own vintners, and from the advertising to the decor.

The Results
Our first four events raised $1.67 million for student scholarships.

Join us on April 2, 2011 as we:

Taste the Finest Wines and Support Learning

This joint philanthropic event between Valencia College and University of Central Florida will benefit our 2+2 scholarships for DirectConnect, which guarantees Valencia graduates a seat at UCF.

Remember: 100 percent of each dollar given for tickets, auction items and sponsorships goes to scholarships and is eligible to earn dollar-for-dollar match through the state of Florida First Generation in College matching grant program, doubling your investment.
