“Service Above Self” is the motto of the Fond du Lac Morning Rotary Club. One way we achieve that motto is by hosting the 2026 Wine Around the World Fundraising. The funds raised go to benefit and heighten awareness of community non-profit organizations focused on helping people.

To date, we have donated over $1,000,000 to community organizations throughout Fond du Lac county as a result of our fundraising efforts.

The Wine Around the World Beneficiary 2026 is the Food For Thought Program through the Fondy Food Pantry!

Why We Donate and Support:

While federal school breakfast and lunch programs help meet weekday nutritional needs, many children go without regular meals on weekends and holidays. To help close this gap, Fondy Food Pantry launched Food for Thought (FFT) in 2011 in partnership with the Fond du Lac School District.

This vital program reduces hunger and its impact on academic success by providing nutritious, child-friendly food for the weekend. Today, FFT supports nearly 1,000 students across Fond du Lac County, with plans to expand as community need continues to increase.
