In January of 2010 Anja Cheriakova and Georges Janssens will be starting a world wine charity tour.  The pair will be visiting over 300 wineries around the globe, inviting them to donate a bottle of their best wine for the cause.  Upon completion of their journey, which will include most wine growing regions of the world, they will hold an auction of the wines in the Napa Valley of California, donating all proceeds to charity.  It will hope to raise 150, 000 USD.

To make this remarkable humanitarian project possible, the World Wine Tour 2010 project is seeking sponsorship, in return for marketing and exposure throughout the mission. The sponsors will be promoted through media broadcast’s, and also directly through visits to wineries and other wine related businesses. For those interested in becoming a sponsor, see contact below.

The proceeds will support the Lao Rehabilitation Foundation Inc. (LRF).  There the funds will go towards a special interest in education for children, by rebuilding a school in Simmano Village that was destroyed in 2008 by massive floods.

Aside from the sponsors to promote, the wineries to showcase, and the charity to raise funds for, the pair hope to motivate young people of their generation to combine their passions and dreams with humanitarian goals, which is what this world needs most.
World Wine Tour would like to thank Wine-Bag.co.uk for its contribution to the furthering of the project's success.
