FOOD NETWORK’S FESTIVAL SUPPORTS GOD’S LOVE WE DELIVER

The Food Network is about to celebrate 15 years in the Big Apple! The event: the New York City Wine & Food Festival. The dates: October 13 – 16, 2022. The events: no less than 80 walk-around tastings, intimate dinners, pier parties, brunches, lunches, master classes, wine tastings and more. The Festival’s partner: God’s Love We Deliver (GLWD), the York City metropolitan area’s leading non-profit provider of medically tailored meals and nutrition counseling for individuals living with severe illness.

Since its inception, the Festival has generated more than $14 million for this charitable cause: one hundred percent of the Festival's net proceeds support GLWD's mission.

The mission of God’s Love We Deliver is to improve the health and well-being of men, women and children living with HIV/AIDS, cancer and other serious illnesses by alleviating hunger and malnutrition. GLWD prepares and delivers nutritious, high-quality meals to people who, because of their illness, are unable to provide or prepare meals for themselves. It also provides illness-specific nutrition education and counseling to clients, families, care providers and other service organizations. All services are provided free to clients without regard to income. GLWD serves 9,600+ individuals annually including clients, children & caregivers, 70% of whom reside?in some of New York City's poorest and most under-served neighborhoods.

Food Network personalities and more than 400 chefs, mixologists and wine and spirit producers will come together to create an unforgettable 4-day epicurean celebration. The complete line-up of events for the 15th Anniversary Festival is available online at nycwff.org. Ticket sales are open to the general public. Stay up to date by following the conversation all year long on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter using NYCWFF/#NYCWFF and on TikTok at @NYCWineFoodFestival.
