You Don’t Want to Miss #Corks2022!

For fifteen consecutive years, our signature event – Corks for Kids Path – has benefited the Kids Path program. Each year, a volunteer committee of young professional leaders helps organize and promote Corks for Kids Path to ensure its success.

All of us here at Kids Path are looking forward to returning to in-person gatherings to support the work we do – in particular, our signature fundraiser, Corks for Kids Path. We were optimistic to do this in-person in March, but COVID-19 is continuing to make its presence known through the troubling omicron variant.

That said, and out of an abundance of caution, our Corks for Kids Path event date has changed.  It is now scheduled to take place in person on Friday, June 3, a time when we expect we can gather safely together, enjoy one another’s company and have a memorable evening together – all while supporting a terrific cause.

Corks for Kids Path also continues to enjoy the special support of Zeto, Greensboro’s premier wine and cheese shop.

Corks for Kids Path is a wine-tasting extravaganza that, in 15 years, has raised more than $1,600,000 to support Kids Path. The event also features a variety of locally brewed craft beers, hors d’oeuvres and a silent auction. Guests have an opportunity to taste a variety of unique handcrafted wines from small wineries and can place orders for the wines. Zeto generously donates 100% of the profits from any of the completed wine orders

Corks for Kids Path provides support for medically fragile children and grieving children. The program has been highlighted in The Wall Street Journal and was recognized by the Duke Endowment as a model program. Because of the Duke Endowment’s support and endorsement, there are now 12 hospices in North and South Carolina, and West Virginia that have Kids Path programs.

Corks for Kids Path is an essential fundraiser. Despite the program’s success, it remains vulnerable. Kids Path relies on public support for nearly 70% of its operating budget.
