Atlanta, GA | July 20, 2022 – Taste of Buckhead, Atlanta’s premier food and beverage tasting event hosted by the Buckhead Business Association (BBA), returns the 6th of October. The event offers foodies unlimited samples of Buckhead’s best food and beverages.

In its’ 17th year, Taste of Buckhead will feature a philanthropic fundraiser with its “Spirit Wall”, with any funds raised from raffling off donated bottles of wine or spirits benefiting the Rally Foundation for Childhood Cancer Research, an organization that empowers volunteers across the country to raise awareness and funds for childhood cancer research to find better treatments with fewer long-term side effects and, ultimately, cures.

Since its launch in 2005, Rally has provided more than $25.4 million in childhood cancer research grants, supporting more than 457 projects worldwide. Rally is the highest rated childhood cancer charity in the world with a perfect score of 100 from Charity Navigator for financial health, accountability, and transparency.

“Each year we are proud to support a new organization in their mission to affect change in our community and in the world at large,” adds Peera. “BBA continues our commitment to supporting charitable causes, and is excited to have our Spirit Wall benefit the incredible work of the Rally Foundation this year.”
