Naples Winter Wine Festival sets a new high: Charity auction raises $12.2 million, breaking record
Article Abstract:
The 2006 Naples Winter Wine Festival raised $12,2 million in live bids, securing Naples position as the nation's top charity wine auction for the third year running. Enough money was raised from sponsorship and past events to cover the festival's expenses, so 100 percent of the proceeds will go to charity.
