>A Wine & Cheese Tasting and Workshop will be held at the Wack Wack Golf & Country Club in Mandaluyong City on May 19 from 6:30pm to 9:30pm. This event is for the benefit of the children in Smokey Mountain, and is organized by the Project Oasis team from Junior Chamber International (JCI) – Manila Chapter.
For a minimal amount of just 500 pesos, participants of the event can learn from wine experts from Sommelier Selections. There will be three batches for the workshop, which will teach everyone how to taste, serve and store wine. Guests can try a variety of wines and cheeses at the event and learn how to pair wine with food, as well as recognize the different grape varieties. The wines that will be featured are not commercial wines, but are only traditional, organic wines from private first-class vineyards. A dinner buffet will also be served throughout the evening.
The organizers will be using the proceeds generated from this event for their project to build a park and playground in Smokey Mountain. During the evening, there will be a short performance from a choir of 15 children from Smokey Mountain, as well as a pledge drive to help promote their cause. In addition, for every bottle of wine purchased, half of the profits will be donated to Project Oasis.
It is the goal of the group to convert a 1,000 square meter area of Smokey Mountain into a beautiful and clean environment for the children of Smokey Mountain to play in, while also encouraging them to develop their social and motor skills, stay away from gangs, and simply enjoy their youth.
Project Oasis, along with JCI Manila, would like to invite everyone to join this event, learn a thing or two about wine, meet new friends, and most important of all, help out in a worthy and noble cause in uplifting the lives of the children in Smokey Mountain!
