As I’ve written about before, I belong to the Northern NJ Wine MeetUp Group, a fun group of wine aficionados who gather most months to pay homage to the grape.
I just received word of a really neat (and worthy) wine tasting fundraiser that I felt was important to share. Ten months, one of the event coordinators, Bob, began volunteering at a group that rescues dogs that are going to be put down, mostly from shelters in the south. That group is called the Save a Lab Rescue and what they do is quarantine the dogs, get them fully vetted, spayed or neutered, micro-chipped and then moved to a foster home until they get placed in a forever home. Bob has fostered 7 dogs since Labor Day.
About the fundraising event:
Includes 25 wines for tasting and an abundance of hors d’oeuvres. All the wines being poured will also be available for purchase.
Saturday, May 11 – 4pm to 8pm
Tree Tavern – 17 Park St., Wanaque, NJ 07465
$37 per Ticket
If you can’t make the event, please consider going to the www.SaveALabNC.com and making a tax deductible donation.

About Save a Lab Rescue:
All-volunteer, not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization that is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and re-homing of displaced Labrador Retrievers and Labrador Retriever mixes.
We rescue Labradors that are in danger of being euthanized at animal shelters or that are in situations that are abusive, neglectful and or harmful. Save A Lab Rescue provides all necessary veterinary care for its rescued Labradors and transports them to approved foster homes, where they are cared for until they are adopted. The organization conducts a thorough screening process of its prospective adopters, and seeks to place its rescued Labradors into approved, permanent adoptive homes.
How You Can Help: We are always in need of adopters and fosters! Donations are also extremely critical to our operation, as adoption fees only offset a portion of the expenses we incur in vetting and transporting our rescued Labradors. Please email us at info@SaveALabNC.com if you would like to help.
You can literally help to save the life of a lab in need!
If you can’t adopt – foster, If you can’t foster – sponsor, If you can’t sponsor – volunteer,
If you can’t volunteer – donate, if you can’t donate – educate, network, and cross-post,
EVERYONE CAN DO SOMETHING, Large or Small to Save a Life!
