2009 Run for Teachers
We are deeply honored to be the beneficiary of a Run For Teachers on Sunday June 28 in San Francisco. Steven Lurie's sister, Tracey Lurie-Sklar, was a teacher in South Africa, and we are all invited to support his memorial run in her honor. Whether you join in the run or sign up to donate $20 from afar, your support is greatly appreciated -- every dollar raised will celebrate Tracey's life and work and benefit Teach with Africa's mission to break down the economic and social barriers to education in South Africa through an exchange of teaching and learning. Visit the Run for Teachers website for more details, to RSVP or to donate, or visit the Run for Teachers Facebook page.
Windsor Vineyards Tasting Room in Tiburon is supporting the Run for Teachers and Teach with Africa by generously donating 10% of all sales during the weekend of June 26-28! In addition, they will attach the TWA logo to all bottles purchased during that period, as requested and free of charge, when you identify yourself as a supporter of Teach With Africa. This is a wonderful opportunity to both stock up on fine wine and assist our Cause.
Visit the Windsor Vineyards website for detailed information about the Windsor Vineyards Tasting Room, 72 Main Street, Tiburon, CA 94920, 800-214-9463.
