It seems that more and more in this crazy, mixed-up world we the people are asked to show our caring and our willingness to do the important things, the right things. And yes, so many are doing the best they can to help so many causes–veterans, school sports and arts centers, food for the hungry, support for victims of natural tragedies and aggression, not to mention a long list of serious illnesses.

So many are giving whatever they can. But when that thrill of giving is tied to our own joys and  pleasures then you truly have a win-win situation!

ABC Fine Wine and Spirits, in partnership with Constellation Brands, will be donating a portion of the sales of Constellation-owned wine brands toward the Pediatric Cancer Foundation to help in its work to eliminate childhood cancer.

The Pediatric Cancer Foundation, which is headquartered in Tampa, collaborates with 11 hospitals nationwide, six of which are located in Florida. The PCF’s focus is to find less toxic, more targeted therapies for pediatric cancer.

The wines in question–all very popular and also very tasty–are:

• Mark West


• Kim Crawford


• Estancia


• Clos du Bois


• Toasted Head


• Simi


• Black Box 3-Liter


• Rex Goliath 750ml or 1.5 L


• Ravenswood


• Dreaming Tree


• Diseno


• Franciscan


• Robert Mondavi Winery


• Mt. Veeder


• Wild Horse


• Ruffino Riserva Ducale ‘Tan Label’

Truly a great selection! So please help this worthy cause by stopping in at your local ABC store and picking up a few bottles from this excellent line of fine wines at varying price points. You won’t be disappointed!

The program runs from August 6 to September 30. And if you want you can also donate an extra $1 toward PCF at the register at the time of purchase.

Thank you!
