 Sponsoring a Foundation event is a savvy and creative way to market your business or organization. Annual show-stoppers such as the 25th Annual Rare & Fine Wine Auction, Field of Dreams, Tour de Vin and others are of the highest caliber; attract sell-out crowds and have become entrenched in culinary and social calendars throughout Texas.
Foundation members are active, sophisticated consumers who appreciate wine, food, travel, classes and events. Many events also attract a business audience that includes corporate executives, business owners, real estate executives, bankers and others.
The Foundation public relations team, headed by Michael Russell of Pierpont Communications leads Foundation media and marketing efforts. Foundation email lists reach over 7,000 wine and food enthusiasts in the Central Texas and the Foundation has longtime relationships with local, national and industry trade media.
This is what our sponsors say about the benefits they received from partnering with the Foundation.
Rare & Fine Wine Auction Sponsor:
"It was an outstanding opportunity to benefit a worthy cause while getting exposure to some fantastic people. Great exposure to business leaders in the community."

Field of Dreams Sponsor:
Dear Rebecca, As you probably know by now, The Field of Dreams charity event has become our favorite fund raiser over the past three years! The opportunity for us to associate our jewelry store with the entire Nolan Ryan family and all of their related business ventures has been terrific on a business and personal level! Seeing Earl Campbell and Nolan toast each other at our event last year was a fantastic experience! I am looking forward to meeting all of the NFL players at this year's function! I want to thank you again for the support of the entire Wine and Food Foundation staff and Board members! You have raised almost $60,000 at three events...benefiting two wonderful charities! We are looking forward to working with you again this year...while " toasting " some pretty cool athletes!
Fondly,
Hank Korman, VP, Russell Korman Fine Jewelry & Watches
