WAYS WE GIVE BACK:

It is the mission of SVAEvents to give back to our community.  We do that a multitude of ways:
 
  • Benefiting Organizations for each event. Applications taken late May thru Aug 15th each year. Selections announced by Nov 1st for the festivals the following calendar year.
 
  • Donations from each festival on behalf of our Board Members, Superstar Volunteers and Individual Volunteers who select their favorite non-profits. 
 
  • Volunteer Groups that work our festivals receive donations based on hours worked.  
 
  • Donation of our "products" (tix, tables, chalets) to other local organization to use to raise funds at their auction or raffle events.
 
  • Other Special Donations including: Town's Windsor Castle Park Fund, CHIP Send-A-Kid to Camp, the KEEP Foundation and Volunteer Fire/Rescue Associations.
 
  • Upon occasion we make special donations to support various other community needs by request.

If you have a local group and want to get involved with us as a volunteer group, or as an individual volunteer please contact us by email at  Volunteer@SmithfieldVAEvents.com
CHECK RECEPTIONS:
As we are still recovering from the financial impact of the pandemic, we are not holding check receptions after each festival.

We hope to have a 10-year Celebration event after the 2023 Wine & Brew Fest!
