Laura’s House Hosts First Annual Wine & Dine Benefit
One hundred community members raised their glasses—and $15,000—at the first-ever Laura’s House Wine & Dine benefit, held on June 9 at Big Canyon Country Club. Beneath the stars of the club’s poolside patio, guests enjoyed tastings of more than 30 wines from Napa Valley, Sonoma Coast and Paso Robles, paired with an array of culinary delights. In addition to ticket sales, monies poured in from a silent auction featuring regional wine tastings and tours, as well as more than 100 bottles of wine. Proceeds support Laura’s House, which provides programs to families impacted by domestic violence in Orange County and beyond. The mission of Laura’s House is to change the social beliefs, attitudes and behaviors that perpetuate domestic violence, while creating a safe place in which to empower individuals and families affected by abuse. —Ashley Breeding
