A gift to help your community. With the support and logistics of the Harvard Square Business Association, we have created a special fund dedicated to supporting small businesses in Harvard Square. Part of the income from your purchase of these wines will be “poured” directly into this fund. And we (hopefully) will help the most vulnerable to reopen and continue to serve our community. We all agree that it is extremely important to preserve the small independent businesses in our Square.
Bertil promises you to deliver at your front door on Sunday Morning, May 10th. Please send an email to bertiljean@comcast.net to place your order. Please place your order by 6PM on Wednesday, May 6th.
Please note: Only Delivery in Cambridge will be able for this promotion to warranty you the freshness of the product.

Furnishing Hope
If you are looking for a meaningful Mother’s Day gift, what better way to honor a mother than by helping a mother and her family as they struggle to rebuild their lives amidst this COVID-19 crisis?
Through Furnishing Hope’s “Honor A Mother By Helping A Mother” campaign, you can make a huge difference in the life of a mother and her family by providing the essential home goods and furniture they need as they transition from a homeless or domestic violence shelter to their permanent housing.
For all gift donations received by Saturday May 9th at 11 pm, we’ll send a personal Mother’s Day message to your mother (or any other honoree you wish) to let her know about your thoughtful gift.
Gift opportunities include:
- Bathroom & Toiletries Starter Set – $30
- Bedding Starter Set – $40
- Kitchen Starter Set – $50
- Moving Van – $125
- A Full Furnishing (bedroom, kitchen, and living room furniture — including in-home delivery and setup – an average of 11 pieces per move; and all three Starter Sets, including a Bedding Starter Set for each family member) – $1,500
- or make a donation of any amount.
So many families who transition from homeless and domestic violence shelters into permanent housing have little in the way of furniture and home goods. Typically, over a third of such families are still sleeping on the floor, don’t have a table to eat at, don’t have lamps to read by, months or even over a year after moving into permanent housing. Such conditions, difficult during “normal” times, are infinitely harder during this time of “shelter at home,” and are particularly hard on children who have already gone through extreme periods of instability and stress.
Furnishing Hope, together with a network of community partners, is working to give these families a better chance as they work to rebuild their lives. Currently, Furnishing Hope has a waiting list of families recently relocated from shelters to apartments who need furniture and home goods. While it is not possible for us to deliver furniture to families during this crisis, Furnishing Hope has developed an action plan to make it possible for us provide “contactless” delivery of Bedding, Kitchen, and Bath & Toiletries Starter Sets. This plan will allow us to get essential home goods into the hands of families who so desperately need them, right now. We’ll resume furniture deliveries as soon as we are permitted.
Your gift will make it possible for Furnishing Hope to provide a mother and her family with the home goods that will make all the difference to families right now—sheets, blankets, and pillows to allow them to sleep comfortably; pots and pans to cook with, plates and utensils to eat with; lamps to read and play by; towels, shower curtains, and toiletries to maintain their comfort, health and dignity.
This Mother’s Day, give the gift of Furnishing Hope.
