Lifestyle website to host charity wine event

Luxury lifestyle website Ladybird of Leisure will host a charity wine tasting event on Saturday to raise funds for local animal charity, the Macau Association for Stray Dogs and Animal Welfare (MASDAW).
MASDAW, a non-profit animal welfare organization, rescues and provides homes for stray dogs and other animals in Macau. MASDAW spends over MOP500,000 annually on vet bills alone. Staffed by volunteers, the animal charity seeks to make Macau an animal-friendly city.
According to a press release, #MASDAWMACAU will be used as the social media hashtag to raise awareness of both the event and the issue of animal welfare in Macau.
As part of the event, local artists, jewelry-makers, ceramic artists and photographers have donated pieces that will be up for auction. The silent auction started earlier this month and will continue until the evening of the event. Bids can be placed online through the Ladybird of Leisure website.
Volunteer performers from the Macau community will perform musical acts and other performances at the event alongside a raffle draw. A few of the MASDAW dogs that are up for adoption will also be joining the event.
The charity winetasting event will be held at the Macau Design Centre on February 27 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. The entrance fee is MOP200, which includes the wine tasting. There will also be raffle tickets on sale for MOP25 each, with Ladybird of Leisure promising a free drink for every MOP100 spent. Tickets can be purchased at The Blissful Carrot, The Roadhouse and Macau Design Centre.
MASDAW and Ladybird of Leisure encourage the public to use #MASDAWMACAU on social media platforms to share their experiences with their own animals, interactions with MASDAW, and any animal welfare issue in Macau up to and beyond the date of the wine event. Staff reporter
