Beyond Ourselves volunteers organize and hold an annual Fall fundraising event in support of two of our mission pillars: aiding the homeless of Charlotte County and protecting the wildlife of Charlotte County. Proceeds from the the Sip & Savor Series will support the Charlotte CARE Center (formerly the Homeless Coalition), and the Peace River Wildlife Center.

Both events will feature:
   • Four (4) tasting pours paired with small bite selections
   • Expert moderators to guide the tasting
   • Raffle baskets, a 50/50 cash raffle and silent auction items
   • Live entertainment by the Jen-Erics, an acoustic guitar duo
   • An opportunity to purchase additional food and beverages (at your own expense) following the tasting presentation
