Follow on Google News | Thumbprint Cellars' Second Annual Leave Your Mark Awareness And Fundraising Campaign“I leave my thumbprint on every bottle of wine I craft and I think it’s just as important we leave a mark on the community and its important causes,” said thumbprint cellars owner/winemaker Scott Lindstrom-Dake. The winery is passionate about supporting and strengthening their community calling itself, “a small winery with a big heart,” cultivating a ‘culture of caring’ internally and externally. “We make donations all year long, but this year is our second ‘Leave Your Mark’ initiative focusing on a series of causes over the last twelve weeks of the year. October’s Breast Cancer Awareness month is a perfect cause to kick this off,” said Lindstrom-Dake. “Every three minutes someone is diagnosed with breast cancer, which means a life has been changed forever in just about the same amount of time it takes to enjoy a taste of one wine.” During the month of October thumbprint cellars will raise money and awareness for breast cancer research by selling ‘Save 2nd Base’ bracelets and collecting monetary donations, with all proceeds going to the Breast Cancer Research fund at Sutter Santa Rosa Regional Hospital Center. More information can be found on the winery’s website, thumbprintcellars.com. The ‘Leave Your Mark’ campaign continues in November with ‘Movember,’ “Lately it seems the issue of men’s mental health is more important than ever to call attention to,” said Carla Jeffries, Director of Business Operations for thumbprint cellars. “And so this year we wanted to do something really significant. Since thumbprint has been doing a monthly series of comedy evenings we decided to make the November show a fundraiser and are proud to present, ‘Laughing Matters,’ an evening of comedy on November 22nd. We are taking the show out of the tasting room and moving it to the Raven Theater in Healdsburg with all proceeds donated to the Movember Foundation.” The ‘Leave your Mark’ campaign continues in November with a collaborative wine tasting and inter-winery Chili for Charity cook-off to benefit the Redwood Empire Food bank on November 15th from 11am-4pm. The event is in partnership with the Wine Walk Healdsburg Alliance, a collective of over thirty downtown Healdsburg wineries. Pre-sale event tickets are available through November 3rd for $15 plus a small processing fee. After November 3rd tickets will be $25 plus processing fees. Day of event tickets can be purchased at any participating winery. More details and the link to purchase tickets can be found at winewalkhealdsburg.com. During the month of December thumbprint cellars,’ ‘Leave your Mark’ campaign will raise money and awareness for the ‘Wounded Warrior Project’ by selling ‘Wounded Warrior Project’ bracelets and collecting monetary donations. On December 13th the winery will host a Winter Wine Release event with live music, great food and wine tasting. The event takes place at thumbprint cellars’ winery from 5pm to 8pm.
