Carolina Wine Brands
 L-R: Lucy Lombardi of Carolina Wine Brands, alongside ADC Social Worker Stacy Scelfo, and ADC Executive Director Diann Robinson
As you may know, Rich Scelfo and Lucy Lombardi of Carolina Wine Brands have been the featured importer for our wine tasting fundraising event since 1996.
Sixteen years ago Rich and Lucy were introduced to the mission of the ADC, and our goal to provide services to any member even if they can't afford it, by Rich's daughter ADC Social Worker Stacy Scelfo. They understood the challenge of raising funds for a human-service non-profit organization, and they proposed the idea of a wine-tasting event to which they would donate the wine from their prestigious label and offer their expertise in putting together a signature event. Over the past 16 years the ADC has raised more than $300,000 because of their commitment. We are thrilled to recognize their contributions. |
