Hello, fashionistas! This past weekend, I had the amazing opportunity to attend the Swan and Dolphin Food & Wine Classic which just so happens to be one of my favorite events of the entire year! To make the weekend even more memorable and in recognition of Veterans Day, the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin donated $10,000 to Friends of Fisher House Orlando, its charitable beneficiary for the 14th annual Swan and Dolphin Food & Wine Classic.
The Orlando Fisher House, located at the Orlando VA Medical Center, provides free accommodations and resources for military and veteran families in several Central Florida counties while a loved one receives medical treatment. Representatives from the organization were present at the event, offering thousands of attendees an opportunity to learn more about its worthy cause.
“We’re honored to be the charitable partner of the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Food & Wine Classic,” said John Karkovice (United States Marine Corps, Retired) and Secretary of the Board of Directors, Friends of Fisher House Orlando. “As an organization passionate about our cause and comprised of many veterans, the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin is a natural fit with Friends of Fisher House Orlando. We can all work together to make a difference in the lives of veterans here in our Central Florida community.”
The Friends of Fisher House Orlando is a nonprofit organization established to support the 16-suite Orlando Fisher House at the Orlando VA Medical Center at Lake Nona. The Orlando Fisher House is one of over 95 comfort homes across the United States built by the Fisher House Foundation in support of military veterans and active-duty service members and their families.
