Meals on Wheels San Francisco Partnership

Meals on Wheels San Francisco Partnership

Meals on Wheels San Francisco is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing a network of services allowing thousands of seniors to live in their homes with dignity and independence. It is a cause that is personal for our proprietors, Kelley and Jim Bailey, and they have supported the organization for many years. Knights Bridge Winery has been honored to partner through the annual Gala with wine, donations, and auction lots.

When the annual Gala was canceled this past May, due to COVID-19, we joined to support the virtual Fund-A-Route Pledge Drive as a Star Vintner. The online event was held October 11 and during the live broadcast Kelley and Jim announced a $50,000 donation on behalf of Knights Bridge Winery to Meals on Wheels San Francisco, which will directly serve 10,000 meals to homebound seniors.

We invite you to join us in pledging support for food insecurity for seniors and Meals on Wheels in whatever way is meaningful for you. Not only will you feel great about doing good, especially in these challenging times, every donation of $2,500 or more will receive a Knights Bridge Wine Tasting Sampler with an educational virtual tasting. It’s our way of thanking all those who have joined with us to support food security for seniors during these uncertain times.

All donations support the delivery of over 2 million meals annually, nutrition counseling, social work services, and urgent home repair needs. Please visit mowsf.org/2020pledge for more information and to make a direct donation to The Star Chefs and Vintners Fund-A-Route Pledge Drive.
