Wine is fine and it’s even finer when it raises awareness for the Nevada Chapter of the National Hemophilia Foundation.
Support the local Nevada organization helping the more than 30,000 Nevadans navigate the complex road of living with bleeding disorders while sipping on great vino and bidding on luxurious auction items at the 6th Annual Wine Fest on April 17 at 6 p.m.
All funds raised stay right here in Nevada to provide ongoing support and advocacy to local children and families living with bleeding disorders.
This year's wine fest is a virtual event led by “Wine Hosts” who register a tasting room and set a fundraising goal for their room. Interested wine lovers can register by clicking here.

Bleeding disorders are life-threatening, debilitating, and expensive to treat. A child with severe Hemophilia will spend over $200,000 annually to prevent bleeding. Some children and adults build up inhibitors to the treatment and the costs can exceed $1,000,000 per year.
Failure to preventatively treat the disorder can result in prolonged painful bleeds that cause permanent and severe damage.
