FRANK and Anna Nardone accepted a thank you certificate from Ronald McDonald House in Adelaide recently, for Nardone Baker Wines' support of the children's charity.
Chair of the Ronald McDonald House Board, Chris Baker, left, made the presentation to Frank and Anna at a special ceremony in North Adelaide.
Nardone Baker sponsors the annual Ronald McDonald Ball in its role as exclusive wine sponsor and the donation of gift packs for auction on the night.
"Frank and Anna have always been very supportive of Ronald McDonald House," said Chair, Chris Baker.
"For the last two years, they have supported the House with their wine sponsorship, and before that they have always supported the House in other ways.
"In fact, I can't remember them ever missing a Charity Ball," he said.
Nardone Baker Wines will again sponsor the Ronald McDonald House Charity Ball as exclusive wine sponsor.
Last year's event raised more than $90,000. This year's event will be on Saturday, October 28, at the Adelaide Convention Centre.
For bookings, contact Ronald McDonald House on (08) 8267 8922.
