"If you've shopped at FranksWine on North Union Street you know two things for sure about us: we like to help the community and we love Rosé! So when MOWD came to my shop asking if we could team up on a fundraising campaign, I knew I wanted to do something to that I could get my crew excited about,” said FranksWine Owner, Frank Pagliaro. “Typically this time of year I would discount bottles of Rosé to move them quickly, but this time I thought that donating $5.00 for every bottle of Rosé I sell during the month of February would do the trick...and it did! But more importantly, we were able to raise funds for Meals on Wheels Delaware!" “FranksWine has always been an incredible supporter of Meals On Wheels Delaware,” said Mari Considine, Executive Director of Meals On Wheels Delaware. “It’s wonderful to see passionate community involvement for seniors who truly need the assistance. We are very happy with how successful our first year of Big Rosé was and are already planning to make next year’s campaign even bigger.” Donations to Meals On Wheels Delaware can be made throughout year, online at www.mealsonwheelsde.org or by calling 302-656-3257.
