MAKING A DIFFERENCE

152.jpeg

Blū Phoenix is more than its high-quality wines and sustainable footprint

A deep passion and commitment to elevating women, girls, and animals reflects my desire to create a more compassionate and equitable world for all. For women and girls, this commitment involves advocating for their rights, opportunities, and well-being. It's about breaking down barriers that limit their potential and empowering them to pursue their dreams. From championing education to supporting mental and physical health, the goal is to ensure that women and girls are not only heard but also given the resources and freedom to thrive in every aspect of life.

 

In parallel, the commitment to animals is rooted in my profound respect for their lives and well-being. Advocating for animals means promoting kindness, respect, and ethical treatment across all spheres of society. Whether it's working toward ending cruelty in industries, supporting wildlife conservation, or ensuring the protection of domestic animals, the goal is to raise awareness about the vulnerabilities animals face and the importance of a compassionate approach to their care. This commitment not only calls for better policies and protections but also emphasizes the significance of fostering empathy toward animals in our everyday lives, encouraging others to adopt more sustainable and humane choices.

Both efforts intersect in the understanding that every living being—whether human or animal—deserves dignity, respect, and the opportunity to live a fulfilling life. By elevating women, girls, and animals, we are fostering a world where kindness, empowerment, and justice are core values that shape our collective future.  Read more below about the two organizations I have a personal connection with them and their mission:  Friends of Ngong Road and Southwest Wildlife Conservation Center

Wine has long been a symbol of connection, a drink that brings people together in celebration, conversation, and shared moments. Just as wine has the power to unite friends and strangers around a table, I believe that our community can foster a similar spirit of unity and purpose. By joining this community, you become a part of something greater—a collective effort to elevate women, girls, and animals.

It is a company focused on making a substantial impact on individuals, communities, and the planet.  As the founder and owner of Blū Phoenix Wine, I set out to create something beyond me and my immediate impact.  My mission, and the mission of this brand, is to create a community that wants, rather expects, and is willing to work towards something better.  A community focused specifically on improving the lives and well-being of women, girls, and animals.

Friends of Ngong Road
 

Friends of Ngong Road is an organization dedicated to helping young girls in Kenya transform their lives by providing them with education and support, leading to employment.  Through its programs, the organization offers scholarships to girls who might otherwise be unable to attend school, helping them break free from the cycle of poverty. Education is the key to unlocking their potential, and Friends of Ngong Road ensures that these girls have resources and mentorship that they need to succeed socially, academically, and professionally. 

 

Beyond educational sponsorship, the organization supports the holistic well-being of these girls.  They offer mentorship, leadership development, and life skills training, ensuring that the girls grow into confident, empowered individuals who can pursue a career and contribute meaningfully to their communities. Friends of Ngong Road also works to address barriers such as access to sanitary products, nutrition, and health care, making sure that each girl’s basic needs are met so that they can focus on their studies and pursue their goals. 

 

The organization’s impact extends far beyond the classroom. By investing in the education and development of girls, Friends of Ngong Road helps create future leaders who will drive change in their communities. The commitment to uplifting girls through education ensures that they can achieve their dreams and become positive role models for others, ultimately fostering a brighter, more equitable future for all. 

 

Blū Phoenix will use a portion of its wine proceeds to contribute to the Scholarship Fund for girls.  I personally sponsor two amazing,  bright young girls and I couldn’t have a more fulfilling experience.

Southwest Wildlife Conservation Center

 

The Southwest Wildlife Conservation Center (SWCC) is committed to the rescue, rehabilitation, and protection of native wildlife in Arizona. With a focus on mammals that are endangered, injured, or orphaned, the organization provides a sanctuary for animals that cannot be released back into the wild. SWCC plays a crucial role in ensuring that these animals have a safe and healthy environment where they can recover, thrive, and live out the rest of their lives.

Beyond rescue and rehabilitation, SWCC is deeply involved in wildlife conservation efforts. The organization educates the public about the importance of protecting local wildlife and preserving natural habitats. Through outreach programs, educational events, and guided tours, SWCC raises awareness about the challenges faced by native species, such as habitat loss and human-wildlife conflict. This educational approach not only fosters empathy for animals but also encourages communities to take action to safeguard wildlife.

SWCC is also dedicated to supporting the long-term survival of endangered species through breeding programs and partnerships with other conservation organizations. By providing a permanent home to animals in need, promoting awareness, and supporting research, the Southwest Wildlife Conservation Center is making a lasting impact on wildlife conservation and animal protection in Arizona and beyond.

Blū Phoenix will use a portion of its wine proceeds for corporate sponsorship(s).
