HARVEST KINDNESS
ABOUT
Thoughtfully crafted to elevate what matters most. Harvest Kindness is a charitable initiative of the Loudoun Wineries & Winegrowers Association, created to give back to the people and organizations that support and sustain Loudoun County’s winery and winegrowing community. Rooted in the belief that a strong wine region depends on a strong community, Harvest Kindness focuses its efforts entirely within Loudoun County.
Through the Harvest Kindness Fund, we provide grants to individuals, families, and nonprofit organizations whose work and lives intersect with Loudoun’s agricultural and wine industry. Our goal is to offer meaningful, localized support where it is needed most—strengthening both our industry and the broader community it calls home.

DONATE
Harvest Kindness is the charitable arm of the Loudoun Wineries & Winegrowers Association, created to reinvest directly in the people and organizations that make our wine industry thrive in Loudoun County. As a nonprofit, Harvest Kindness funds local grants sponsored by our events and the generosity of private donors.
