This past Saturday, October 5, our community came together for an unforgettable Uncork the Night Gala—a celebratory evening of fine wine and philanthropy.
Here are a just few highlights and shoutouts from the night.
Stay tuned for a full gallery of photos coming to our social media and website later this week!
The results are in! Guests wined, dined, and raised an incredible $405,000 to support Bellevue children! This generosity fuels our mission to break the cycle of poverty for children and students in our community and provide them with the resources they need to reach stability.
Five standout Pacific Northwest wineries provided curated tastings for guests. Special thank you to DeLille Cellars, Passing Time Winery, Mark Ryan Winery, WeatherEye Vineyards, and Pearl and Stone Wine Co. for your partnership!
Kaci Aitchison and Matt Lorch returned as our dynamic Emcee and Auctioneer duo, and their energy truly elevated the evening. Their passion brought an incredible sense of excitement and generosity to the room, making the night unforgettable. We’re so grateful for their continued dedication and enthusiasm for our mission!
What made Uncork the Night truly extraordinary? The support and generosity of so many local businesses and individuals! From the mouth-watering desserts donated by a variety of local bakeries, to the beautiful centerpieces provided by Safeway, every detail was carefully crafted to create a memorable evening.
A special thank you to our Table Sponsors: Charles Schwab, Serene Primary Care, and Symetra. Big thanks also to Eastside Wine Storage for keeping our wines in perfect condition leading up to the event and to Bellevue’s own Chef John Howie, who generously donated unforgettable experiences. We couldn’t have done it without the help of these amazing partners.
The best part of the evening? Bringing members of our cherished Bellevue community together to create lasting change and open doors to the brighter futures of Bellevue’s children.
We are honored to work hand-in-hand to make Bellevue a place where every child can thrive. Thank you.
