The more I see and the older I get the more I feel that we each have an obligation, a responsibility, to give back. Some of us can only give a little and some of us can give quite a bit. We can also give in different ways. Some people have time to give but not money. Others have money but not the time.
Point is…nobody cares how you give or what you give…so long as you give.
must! charities in Templeton is a great local charity that focuses on ways to give back to the north county of San Luis Obispo County. Summerwood Winery has partnered with must! and you can see what that partnership is about in the press release below.
Give back as much and as often as you can. Buy a bottle of wine that benefits a charity you care about. Do a 5K run that benefits something important to you. Donate your time at the local food bank. We can all do something. We can all do more. There are people out there that need our help. One day…we may need their help.
