Sweet Heart Winery Presents Donation to Children’s Hospital Colorado in Memory of Everly Grace Snowden

Annual Valentine’s Wine Renamed “Everly’s Wine” to Support Ongoing Hearts for Everly Campaign

Aurora, CO – May 6, 2025 – Sweet Heart Winery proudly presented a $5,000 donation today to the Heart Institute at Children’s Hospital Colorado as part of its ongoing Hearts for Everly campaign, honoring the life and radiant spirit of Everly Grace Snowden.

The presentation took place at Children’s Hospital Colorado in Aurora. Charles Oster, CEO of Sweet Heart Brands, was joined by his wife, Farah Oster, General Manager of Sweet Heart’s award-winning Loveland property. Also in attendance were David and Melissa Snowden—Everly’s parents—alongside members of Everly’s medical care team and staff from the Children’s Hospital Colorado Foundation.

“We are honored to remember Everly through this campaign and to stand beside her family in the fight against congenital heart disease,” said Charles Oster. “As a winemaker in Loveland—The Sweetheart City—and with February being Heart Month, it makes perfect sense for us to dedicate our annual Valentine’s wine to this cause. Everly’s Wine is now and forever a tribute to her courage and joy.”

Everly Grace Snowden passed away in July 2024 at just 3.5 years old due to complications from congenital heart disease (HLHS). Her strength and joyful presence inspired the Hearts for Everly campaign, which raises funds and awareness for the Heart Institute at Children’s Hospital Colorado.

“Everly’s legacy continues to light a path forward,” added Oster. “We will continue to commit proceeds from every future Valentine’s wine release to the Hearts for Everly campaign to help other children and families receive the care and hope they deserve.”

Caroline Shutley (Davis), Manager of Community Engagement & Events at Children’s Hospital Colorado Foundation, shared her gratitude:

“Children’s Hospital Colorado Foundation is fueled by donations like this and we are thrilled to be supported by Sweet Heart Winery. This kind of partnership makes a meaningful difference for the children we serve.”

The Hearts for Everly campaign is part of Sweet Heart Winery’s greater mission to create experiences for people to connect—and to use its platform to support causes that matter deeply to the community.
