Miami, FL (1888PressRelease) May 08, 2013 - Educate Tomorrow, an international non-profit organization based in South Florida, will host its 10th Anniversary Wine Tasting & Silent Auction on Thursday, May 30th from 6 until 9 PM at Briza on the Bay, located at 1717 North Bayshore Drive Miami, FL 33132. Proceeds will help support Educate Tomorrow's core Mission of creating independence for foster youth and other disadvantaged youth through education, mentoring and life skills training.

"The Wine Tasting not only allows us to raise much-needed funds to reach more youth, it also allows us to thank all of our supporters and to celebrate a decade of working together," says Educate Tomorrow CEO Brett McNaught. "Of those Educate Tomorrow students who are now over 23 years old, 45 percent have received a college degree or certification. That is more that 10 times the national and local averages for former foster youth. Our mentors and supporters have helped make a tremendous difference in the lives of so many."

E&J Gallo Winery, International Wine Imports and Jaguar Ceviche Spoon Bar & Latam Grill are among those in-kind sponsors that will provide fabulous food and fine wine.
