Philanthropy
Featherstone Estate Winery’s new owners, Rayla and George Myhal, believe in creating stronger communities through philanthropy. Their annual giving through the Myhal Family Foundation has helped support projects in education, healthcare, and humanitarian efforts globally.
With the purchase of Featherstone Estate Winery and their expansion into the Niagara region, the Myhals are committed to using their background in philanthropy to help uplift the surrounding community.
While their original goal was to give back 10% of all profits to local charities and initiatives, in their first year of ownership they proudly exceeded that commitment, donating over 20% back into the community.
If you are a local charity looking for support, please email giving@featherstonewinery.ca
