CK Mondavi Gives Back to the Intrepid Heroes Fund! #CleverGirls #CKMondaviHeroes #AD

Posted on the 29 April 2014 by Jamie Gall @50states50wines

Over the past decade I have truly learned how important the military is, and more so, who the true heroes are in our days: The Active Service, or, anyone that has been apart of the military past or present.

World War II Memorial
The ones that signed up for duty to risk their lives to protect our country. For me, I have three cousins right now who have served, or are in service.

I watched from afar as these young boys became men, and watched how they matured through being in service and they’ve made me very proud to know them, but even more so, I appreciate what they’ve done to protect our country, and our people.

With that being said, any opportunity I have to give back to the Military, I try hard to do so.  So when I heard about CK Mondavi Wines donating to the Intrepid Fallen Heroes fund, I knew I had to shout it from the rooftops.  That, and I honestly love when wine companies decide to give back to causes they truly believe in.

Here’s a few fun facts about CK Mondavi Wines:

CK Mondavi is the only American made/grown wine in the “supermarket wine under $10” category. (Heck yea!)

CK Mondavi is run by the legendary Napa Valley wine icon, Peter Mondavi Sr., a World War II veteran. (Can’t wait to visit the winery!)

Established in the 1940s, CK Mondavi remains a family- owned business that has thrived for four generations to produce fine wines. (Love Family-owned businesses.)

CK Mondavi wine is sold nationwide in every US state.

A percentage of each bottle sold between May – August is donated to Intrepid Fallen Heroes (up to $50,00).

What is in the Intrepid Fallen Heroes fund? Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund (IFHF), an organization that supports the men and women of the Armed Forces and their families.  This organization is completely funded by public donations, IFHF serves U.S. military personnel wounded or killed in service to our nation and their families. For more information, visit www.fallenheroesfund.org.
