Community Investment
The benefits of wine for one’s emotional and physical wellbeing are undeniable. As a prominent figure in the industry, we believe that Willow Park Wines & Spirits should have the same positive impact as our products do.
Over the last 25 years, our community initiatives have raised millions of dollars for local charities and organizations, spanning a variety of disciplines. Through the establishment of The Vintage Fund, our continued involvement as sponsors for local events, and frequent in-kind donations, our dedication to the community sets us apart from other retailers.
Charities
In addition to providing financial support to our targeted charities through The Vintage Fund, Willow Park Wines & Spirits also gladly supports charities and not-for-profit organizations in our community, through in-kind donation.

The charities and organizations we donate to reflect and align with the corporate goals and values of Willow Park Wines & Spirits. Our pillars of Community Investment include Seniors Wellbeing, Community Health & Recreation, Education, and Arts & Culture.Â
Our Charitable Giving Board chooses which programs best meet our corporate vision. To be considered for support, all requests must be submitted with a minimum of six weeks’ notice. This allows us to make more effective and efficient decisions due to the large volume of requests we receive each year.
