Besides being an epic night of tasting and sipping, there will be lots of giving back!
Frankie’s Family, a local non-profit, is the beneficiary for 2022. The organization was started by one man who dared to care for kids in need, especially during the holidays. Frankie Hilbert and his team have helped hundreds of “adopted angels.” Last year they raised over $53,000 and adopted a total of 530 Angels: 430 Children & 100 Seniors. We are excited to aid such a worthy cause!
“Frankie’s Family is honored to be a part of the 48th Annual Taste of Louisville and to work together to help those who are in need in our community. This partnership will help us continue our “Family” mission this Holiday season so we can provide for so many children who otherwise wouldn’t have anything on Christmas Morning! We hope to see everyone out supporting this great event! We are so excited and can’t wait for Oct.12!” — Frankie Hilbert, Frankie’s Family Founder
