Somm Foundation Seeks Funding, Auction Offers Tastings, Cellar Consults

The Somm Foundation, which has awarded more than $1.6 million in financial aid to 1,862 individuals and sent 1,176 individuals, including 36 Master Sommeliers on enrichment trips to countries all over the world, is seeking support to continue its work.

It is seeking support in one of several ways:

• Donations
• Bid on holiday auction items here. The items range from bottles of wine to Bordeaux wine tastings, to private cellar consultations to a private wine tasting at Sotheby's.
• Follow SommFoundation on Instagram and share our fundraiser in your bio
• Share the story with your regulars at your restaurants, bars, and retail shops. Help get the word out to those who more readily have the means to donate.
• Participate in Summer of the Somm in July 2025
