Interfaith Older Adult Programs Hosts Annual Wine & Beer Tasting Fundraiser

Milwaukee, WI, March 31, 2016 --(PR.com)-- Another baby boomer turns 65 every eight seconds, according to Caring Across Generations, and the number of elderly in Southeast Milwaukee County needing assistance with day-to-day activities will only grow. For more than 40 years, Interfaith Older Adult Programs has been the leading nonprofit organization meeting the needs of older adults and caregivers. In the South Shore Region alone, more than 900 older adults receive free transportation for medical appointments, personal home visits and minor home chores through Interfaith’s Neighborhood Outreach Program.

To continue their work, Interfaith Older Adult Programs is hosting its third annual Wine & Beer Tasting at The Basilica on Thursday, April 21, 2016, 6:30 - 9pm at The Basilica of St. Josaphat, 2333 S. 6th Street in Milwaukee.

Guests will enjoy sampling fine wines, craft beers, appetizers and desserts, and an opportunity to win a great selection of raffle prizes. Aside from the tastings, the event will feature free, formal tours of the majestic Basilica, beautifully lit in the evening to showcase oil murals, ornamental plaster work and painted columns in one of the largest, most beautiful, and most historically important churches in Milwaukee. Secure parking is available.

Advance purchase tickets are $30 each, or $35 at the door. A VIP 1st Serving & Tour ticket with entry at 6:00 pm is $50 per person. To purchase tickets or donate to the program, visit www.my.interfaithmilw.org or call the South Shore Regional office at 414-762-1998.

All proceeds from the event will directly benefit the South Shore Regional neighborhood office.
