The BCHF’s Executive Director, Dana Harris, notes that the hospitality industry is facing unprecedented challenges as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. “ We know it’s hurting everyone, which makes us value the support from Quails’ Gate all the more. The generosity in our community is astonishing. ” 

Tony Stewart, the winery Proprietor and CEO, says his family decided to make the donation because they “ wanted to do something to help support the industry we love so much. It’s difficult to see others in our community struggling.
