Wine & Wonder🍷 is an event in Charlotte designed to explore the art of wine, culinary excellence, and meaningful conversations.

The Cause 😍: It also is a fundraising event to help finish constructing the 2-story Middle School in Akryemade, Ghana (we have raised enough so far to complete the first level). We are excited to positively impact education in a village school outside Kumasi, Ghana (Charlotte's sister city).

What it Includes: This wine-tasting event will feature 3 wines and a dessert wine (3+1) with hour's oeuvres paring by Chef Awo of Eh'vivi.

How does it work: Individuals will be in small groups where we will provide meaningful questions to answer as you "wonder" about others. In a world full of division, let's build community through more meaningful conversations.

What does Un-Networking mean? While it may be semantics, networking can sometimes be seen as transactional and what can I get from you. Our focus is to stir meaningful conversation that leads to transformational working relationships that go beyond the surface of what you do and where you work as we focus more on who you are.

Be prepared to have meaningful conversations (Wonder) that exclude the two questions (1. Where do you work and 2. What do you do). Asking one of those 2 questions will result in an automatic $20 fine donated to the fundraising initiative.

Don't be afraid; you can go as deep or not as deep as you like, but we welcome you to more meaningful conversations!

Attire: Come as you are

Note: We will have water and a non-alcoholic "wine" for those who don't drink or can't drink.

Already have plans...save the date for the Cultural Gala, Fundraiser, and Fashion Show (September 19) and the Friendsgiving edition of Wine & Wonder (November 16, 2024).

Brought to you by the AfroCareCLT Collective:

Who is the AfroCareCLT Collective? We are a group of Charlotte Area-based organizations and individuals who have the heart to give forward toward educational initiatives on the continent of Africa. We had our first meeting in the Fall of 2022, hosted our first Cultural Gala in 2023, and continue to come together (with no ego) to make a positive impact! We believe in the African proverb: "If you want to go fast, go alone; but if you want to go far, go together!"
