16 November 2024, the Honey Meyn Hotel in Opatow hosted an extraordinary event – a Young Wine Festival combined with a Charity Auction, which brought together numerous guests with big hearts. The event was organised by the Rotary Club of Opatow, known for its community activities and support for charitable initiatives.
The proceeds from the auction will be donated to the charges of Sister Malgorzata Chmielewska, known for her commitment to helping those most in need.
I had the honour of participating in the event together with the IHRC Director of Diplomatic Protocol. Among the numerous items auctioned, one that attracted attention was a unique ball with the autographs of the Polish National Team, which we managed to auction together. After the end of the auction, the ball was donated to the International Human Rights Commission – IHRC, where it will become a symbol of cooperation and support for the organisation’s activities to protect human rights.
The photo captures the moment when this unique gift was handed over by the entrepreneur Mariusz Jablonski and Grzegorz Brzostowicz. It is thanks to such people, who are devotedly involved in charitable activities, that it is possible to help those who need it most.
It is worth noting that the initiative was organised by exceptional people: Magda, Barbara, Wioletta, Grzegorz, Tom, Bogdan, Franco, Peter and Adam. Their commitment and open hearts created an atmosphere that combined the pleasure of tasting young wine with real support for those in need.
Thank you to all the donors for their participation and generosity. Every gesture matters, and this event proved once again the power of doing good together.
