Event History
Scotch Tasting Held February 21, 2026
Attendees learned about the history of Scotch making and tasted some of the finest 15-, 18-, and 21-year-old single malt whiskies. This was an educational and fun evening which included cuisine with a Scottish flare, generously hosted by Scotch Master John and Mary Margaret. All proceeds benefited healthcare in impoverished Honduras.
“Cherish the Memories” Holiday Fundraiser 2025
Our annual holiday fundraiser is significant in supporting the medical services provided by Salud Hondu to those in need in impoverished Honduras, and this year was a huge success! Thanks to all of our donors for your support and generosity.
The Cherish the Memories thank you gift offerings featured vintage ornaments, each in a lovely vintage teacup or espresso cup with cloth cocktail napkin and gold-plated twig spoon. Boasting an age of 60 or more years, the signs of age on these ornaments are part of their beauty and indicative of their historical significance. Some examples are shown here.
Poetry Reading
A poetry reading was held at a private home the first Sunday of December 2025.
Bourbon Tasting
A fun-filled bourbon tasting was held at The Coastal Succulent Design Studio in Wilmington, NC.
100% of the $150 donation for this event is tax deductible and enables our Honduran medical staff to continue to care for over 5,000 patients annually. This bourbon tasting offered Japanese bourbon whiskey, several unique Texas distillery bourbons, and signature bourbon cocktails to enjoy with hors d’oeuvres along with auction items, and prizes too!
Create Your Own Live Succulent
