From the opening day of Simply Wine in May 2005, Simply
Wine has made it a priority to support local, regional, and national charities
through various means. The Simply Wine organization has donated, hosted,
and supported over 8 charitable events in 2005 and we plan to continue
in the years to come with more focused events supporting local and regional
charities.
Simply Wine utilizes its unique position as a retail
business to offer charitable donations via several avenues. Wine Tasting
proceeds, Sponsorships for local and regional charities and direct donations
of products account for the majority of our activities.
Simply Wine takes great pride in helping those in need.
And always, they graciously acknowledge the generosity of donations by
their vendors, which has been a key factor in their fundraising and donation
efforts. For example: National Distributing and Atlanta Wholesale Wine
provided the wine while they provided the venue for the 2 Day walk for
breast cancer fund. It's just one of many examples of the social
responsibilities Simply Wine feels, supports, and executes.
Simply Wine knows that at the soul of a healthy organization
is a deep connection and dedication to the community," states Kelly
Jones President and CEO. "As long as we are around, we will proudly
continue to give to communities in need, and of course to those who are
less fortunate. It is our honor and pleasure."
