We are incredibly proud to share that the 26th annual Naples Winter Wine Festival, “Picture This,” 🍇 📸 concluded this weekend with extraordinary generosity shown during an exhilarating live auction—raising over $30 million to support vulnerable children in Collier County. This remarkable milestone brings the total raised by NWWF to more than $366 million since its inception in 2001. Festival attendees once again gathered under the big tent just outside The Ritz-Carlton Naples, Tiburón, bidding on 51 one-of-a-kind wine, travel and culinary experiences. All proceeds will support highly effective nonprofit organizations in our community that have now served 385,000 children with the critical services and resources they need to thrive. 🥂 Guests answered a heartfelt call to action through this year’s Fund a Need, The Picture of Health, raising $7 million to expand access to mental, oral, vision and primary healthcare services for children. It’s ALL for the Kids! 💗

We danced the night away celebrating the enormous generosity of the winning bidders to live music during our Wine Down celebration. Cheers!
