A Toast to Caring

Fayette Cares offers a toast of thanks to all who recently attended and supported the Forks & Corks event. The community’s generosity and spirit were on full display, contributing to the success of this benefit.

For nearly a decade, guests have gathered at de terra Vineyard & Wines of Somerville to enjoy an evening of wine tasting in support of a great cause. Guests uncorked the fun among the grapevines  surrounded by beautiful flowers donated by Tennessee Ivy.  They sipped and swayed to the soothing music performed by the Josh Threlkeld band, and enjoyed delicious food prepared by Germantown Commissary BBQ.

Fayette Cares is honored to have contributing sponsors de terra Vineyard & Wines of Somerville, FirstBank, Mercedes-Benz of Collierville, and Rolling Thunder Game Calls, who show their strong support for the mission. Their contributions were instrumental in making the event memorable and impactful.

An anonymous donor provided special gifts to those who pledged support at the event, helping to raise additional funds. This generosity provides life-changing services to shelter the homeless, feed those facing food insecurity, protect victims of abuse, and much more.

A special thank you is also extended to the sisters of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. Mu Zeta Zeta Chapter and other dedicated volunteers. Their assistance was crucial in ensuring the smooth execution and preparation of the event.

Forks & Corks has once again demonstrated the power of community in supporting Fayette Cares’ mission to provide services and support to those in need. Fayette Cares is grateful for amazing supporters, sponsors, volunteers, and friends in caring, and looks forward to continuing this tradition of community caring.
