Now in its sixteenth year, the Swan and Dolphin Food & Wine Classic once again turned delicious plates into meaningful impact. Area General Manager Sean Verney presented the check during the closing moments of the two-night event to Wounded Warrior Project Community Fundraising Manager Savannah Simmons and veteran Sharona Young, a program beneficiary.
This marks the second year in a row the event has partnered with Wounded Warrior Project, helping extend support to military veterans and their families. Founded in 2003 and headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, the Wounded Warrior Project focuses on post-9/11 veterans who experienced physical or mental injuries during or after service. Their free programs cover mental health care, career counseling, long-term rehabilitative support, and more.
