Spotlight: One Fund Boston
This week, The Urban Grape has decided to forego highlighting a Spotlight wine, and instead asks that our clients consider making a donation to The One Fund. For this week, our "Buy Now" button will direct you to the One Fund donation page.
The mission of The One Fund is to raise money to help those families most affected by the tragic events that unfolded during last Monday's Boston Marathon.
In forming the fund, Mayor Menino said, "We are one Boston. We are one community. As always, we will come together to help those most in need. And in the end, we will all be better for it."
For those of you that understandably missed last week's Spotlight of the Ehlers Estate Sauvignon Blanc (regular $30, reduced to $22.50 per bottle with a six pack order), we will continue that offer through this week, and bring a new Spotlight to you next week.
The Urban Grape was started with one main goal - to be a neighborhood wine store that creates community, memories, and joy through the experience of wine. We're prouder than ever to be a local Boston company, and to have our incredible clients as our extended family.
