Your donation provides an exclusive opportunity to participate in the high-profile Forks & Corks Online Food and Wine Auction during which your donated item(s) will be showcased to an online audience of food and wine connoisseurs.

Your donation supports The Sarasota-Manatee Originals. The Sarasota-Manatee Originals consist of over 60 locally owned restaurants throughout Florida’s Suncoast, from the tip of Anna Maria Island to the southern beaches of Venice. Their owners and operators share a passion for dining excellence and commitment to our community while celebrating our rich Gulf-coastal lifestyle. As our local, small businesses are able to grow together, they’re empowered to give back in even greater measure. Working toward shared success, the Originals proudly feed the reaped rewards back into their neighborhoods. Independent, locally-owned restaurants nourish their surroundings, strengthening the relationships and economy of their community.

Important Notes:
When considering what item or experience to donate, please evaluate the uniqueness of the contribution. Guests are looking for distinct items or experiences that cannot be purchased typically. Auction packages feature rare and exquisite wines, international and domestic travel, special dining and party experiences, lodging, entertainment, one-of-a-kind experiences and more!
