According to her team, Allison O’Toole is likely to introduce herself as “the very proud CEO of Second Harvest Heartland” as they’ve stepped up to address the largest uptick in hunger seen in decades during the COVID hunger surge. 

They’ve had a 60% increase in visitors since the pandemic began and continued to meet the needs of hungry families. 


Allison was nominated by her team for her leadership in representing Minnesota nationally in the media as a go-to source for how to combat food and security, as well as for her innovation and leadership in the fight against hunger.

If so, then snatch your tickets today to the TeamWomen’s Sip & Socialize Event on Wednesday, October 28, from 6-7:30pm–a charity event that will support the mission work of TeamWomen & Empower Leadership Academy. It’ll be a delightful way to spend Wine Wednesday with some wonderful women!

Join Carin and Sarah of Pairs Well With…, a sister-owned, wine-centric business based out of the Twin Cities. For the past five years, they have been passionately pursuing wine’s connection to food, travel and culture. Their focus is on wine education, wine travel guides and wine events.

They’ll be guiding you through a virtual wine tasting experience where you’ll sample three wines, including a bottle or two produced by some stellar female winemakers. Details regarding how to shop for the wines will be provided closer to the event date.

We look forward to sipping and socializing with you!
