On November 16th, the second night of the event, the check was presented to WWP. Savannah Simmons, WWP’s Community Fundraising Manager, along with Sharona Young, a veteran and WWP program beneficiary, received the donation from Swan and Dolphin area general manager Sean Verney.

Starting in 2024, the Food & Wine Classic has partnered with WWP in honor of November as National Veterans and Military Families Month. WWP was founded in 2003 and is a non-profit that provides post-9/11 veterans with physical and mental injuries with free programs and services for them as well as their families. Their goal is to improve veterans’ lives and support post-service life.
