Our Mission
The Texas Wine Auction Foundation is dedicated to creating a lasting impact! We fund programs that promote healthy communities and strengthen a sustainable future for Texas wines.
-
Supporting Local Communities: Through grants focused on enhancing general health and mental wellness in Texas, we empower local agencies and initiatives tackling these vital issues. Together, we’re building stronger, healthier communities.
-
Advancing the Texas Wine Industry: Our commitment extends beyond the glass. By funding innovative research and sustainability programs, we’re fostering the growth of Texas’s wine industry. From vineyard innovation to elevating the quality and reputation of Texas wines, we’re driving economic growth and celebrating the rich heritage of Texas as a world-class wine destination.
At the Texas Wine Auction Foundation, our events are more than celebrations of wine—they're opportunities to preserve its legacy and build its future. Join us as we sip, support, and shape the next chapter of Texas wine.
