The Event:
The San Fernando Valley Community Mental Health Center, Inc., the largest non-profit mental health services provider of its kind in Los Angeles, is holding an exciting fundraising event for connoisseurs of fine wine, chocolate and automobiles. This intimate tasting event is an excellent opportunity to allow people to sample your products while helping to support the Center’s work in the community.

The Location:
This event will be held at the very exclusive “Collection Room” at Galpin Motors in the San Fernando Valley. The Collection is a showcase of some of the most impressive automobiles ever to grace the road, including cars from the private collection of Galpin Motors’ Owner Bert Boeckmann. Your presentation table will be set amidst Astin Martins, rare Shelby Mustangs, Jaguars, Ford GTs and one-of-a-kind vintage cars.

The Opportunity:
There is room for a very limited number of winemakers, chocolatiers and restaurateurs. By keeping the event intimate, you will stand out! It costs you nothing to participate. Providing samples of your products for our attendees is all we ask. As a participant, you will have the chance to talk about your product in a relaxed intimate setting where attendees will be free to mill about. You can distribute business cards, fliers, order forms and other information to help build awareness of your business.
Winemakers will each have a table for tastings and to talk about wine and food pairings. Wineries with restaurants will want to consider joining forces to bring dessert tasters to demonstrate pairings with their wines.
Restaurateurs & Chocolatiers will each have a table with which to present decadent dessert tasters and canapés.
This is a perfect opportunity to stand out as one of only a select few participants in this event as you show your support for the Center and its work in the community.
