The 4th Annual Bourbon for Booty raised more than $100,000 to support cancer navigation and survivorship programs funded by 24 Foundation. Held on Nov. 1 at Swinerton, the sold-out event welcomed over 175 guests for an evening of curated whiskey and wine tastings, elevated cuisine, and spirited community giving.
“We raise a glass and extend huge thanks to all the attendees, our partners, and to everyone involved in making our Fourth Annual Bourbon for Booty a tremendous success,” said Katherine Murphy, executive director of 24 Foundation. “It was an exceptional evening to help change the course of cancer for individuals and families right here in our community.”
Guests received a souvenir tasting glass and sampled from a curated lineup of 10 premium bourbons and wines, each paired with chef-crafted small bites and hors d’oeuvres by Roots Catering. The evening also featured music, and a silent and live auction, which was called by Austin Helms, auctioneer and owner of Halftime Rentals. Julian Sadur, a morning anchor with Queen City News, emceed the event.
Event partners included: CarolinaPEO, Donald Haack Diamonds, Farsiani, LKN Mechanical, NuBlue, and Swinerton. Bourbon partners included: Brad Halling Whiskey Ko., Liberty & Plenty Distillery, Montana Whiskey Co., Oaklore Distilling, and Southern Tier Distilling.
