Kosher Wine Retailer, Artist Team Up to Help Ukraine

As part of a long time commitment to support philanthropic organizations that are built on ‘Faith,’ mental strength, and inspiration, the Elizabeth Sutton Collection has partnered with “I Drink “Kosher” to form a major Passover fundraising campaign for United Hatzalah of Israel’s efforts to support Ukraine.

The art, fashion and interior design business will be donating $10,000 to United Hatzalah plus a percentage of the Elizabeth Sutton Cabernet Sauvignon branded wine to be sold by “I Drink Kosher”, a NYC based e-commerce and retail chain, for Passover. Elizabeth Sutton has been a member of the United Hatzalah Young Leadership Committee for several years.

United Hatzalah of Israel is the largest independent, non-profit, fully volunteer Emergency Medical Service organization that provides the fastest and free emergency medical first response throughout Israel and a growing number of countries throughout the world. United Hatzalah’s service is available to all people regardless of race, religion, or national origin.

The Elizabeth Sutton Cabernet Sauvignon Wine, called “Faith,” features a print of Elizabeth’s custom-made painting of a photograph the artist took of the Western Wall on a trip to Israel in August of 2018. The label features over 250 colors, with ‘Faith’ highlighted in gold leafing. Following a tour of the United Hatzalah headquarters in Jerusalem, Eli Beer, the organization’s founder, arranged for an ambucycle to be delivered to the Kotel later that day to facilitate a photoshoot that Sutton would later turn into paintings. Elizabeth created three Judaica paintings from that day. “My mother and I saw the backend of how United Hatzalah’s technologies functioned while on the tour. We were so impressed with the organization, their low overhead, and their philosophies that I am thrilled to be supporting their efforts.” Elizabeth donated one of her custom Judaica paintings to the United Hatzalah auction at their annual Gala at Chelsea Piers in 2019, an endeavor which raised $36,000 to purchase an ambucycle, the organization’s life saving motorcycle ambulance innovation.

Elizabeth has also donated to and raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for such formidable institutions as the 92nd Street Y, ArtStart, City Harvest, Nicklaus Children’s Hospital, Lenox Health Greenwich Village, and FIDF.

“Life is not always rainbows and butterflies,” Sutton likes to say. “But my art is.”
