As the central point of access for assistance on domestic violence within the counties of Caroline, Dorchester, Kent, Queen Anne's, and Talbot on Maryland's Eastern Shore, the mission of Mid-Shore Council on Family Violence is to create healthy opportunities to break the cycle of domestic violence through intervention and prevention by providing shelter, counseling, services, and advocacy for victims and abusers; and by changing society's attitudes and systems which permit and promote such violence against women, men and, families.

One of the charities supported by WineFest is El Hogar Projects, home to 250 abandoned, orphaned, and hopelessly poor children in Honduras. El Hogar rescues children from a life of hunger and desperation on the streets of Honduras. It enables them to break the cycle of poverty and unemployment by providing them with a home, a nurturing environment, education and a marketable trade.
