In their invitation to the dinner, Postero writes:
“We can’t think of a more delicious way to help others than an evening full of fine wine and well crafted food. Six different wines, highlighting the best that Italy has to offer paired with our own inventive takes on regional Italian classics. What better way to kick off the the Holiday giving season. Big Brothers & Big Sisters mission is to to ensure every child in WNC has an enjoyable, long-term relationship with a caring adult who believes in them and sees their potential. They select and match mentors with children facing adversity and provide ongoing activities, training and support services for both families and volunteers to foster a successful match relationship and a lasting connection.”
