Lawson’s Finest Liquids’ Sunshine Fund Donates to Neighbors in Action
As a part of the brewery’s Social Impact Program, Lawson’s Finest Liquids’ gives back to Vermont nonprofits through their Sunshine Fund
WAITSFIELD, VT (July, 2024)– Lawson’s Finest Liquids has selected Neighbors in Action of Cabot and Lyndonville, Vermont as a recipient of its 2024 Sunshine Fund. Neighbors in Action will be a temporary “on-tap” partner for 2 weeks, receiving 100 percent of guest donations! Visit the Lawson’s Finest destination brewery and taproom in Waitsfield, VT, through the end of July for a delicious brew you can feel good about.
“Neighbors in Action is thrilled to partner with Lawson’s Finest Liquids in this way that supports both of our work, as local businesses are part of the foundation that keeps our communities healthy.” Amy Hornblas, Executive Director of Neighbors in Action shared her appreciation for the partnership with Lawson’s. “Providing essentials such as food and household supplies may not be the most glamorous work, but without proper nutrition nobody can do their best. With the help of over 50 volunteers, we provide over 1,000 boxes of food a month for families in need in Washington County and the Northeast Kingdom.”
The Sunshine Fund at Lawson’s Finest Liquids, launched in 2018, harnesses the generosity of taproom guests with the goal of helping local communities thrive. Because Lawson’s Finest provides their staff with living wages and generous benefits, the brewery invites guests to donate to the Sunshine Fund to support local nonprofits and charitable organizations in lieu of tips. If guests choose to support the Sunshine Fund during their visit, 100% of the amount donated will be given to a rotating nonprofit.
“Our team is so excited to partner with Neighbors in Action this year. We’re grateful for the opportunity to support a nonprofit that makes Vermont such an amazing place to live,” says Lawson’s Finest Liquids’ Social Impact Program (SIP) Manager Carra Cheslin. “The Sunshine Fund allows us to give back to a number of organizations each year that provide essential services and help ensure healthy, thriving, and sustainable communities for all Vermonters.”
The Sunshine Fund is part of the Lawson’s Finest Liquids Social Impact Program (SIP), which is the brewery’s way of building impactful connections and strengthening community while creating memorable experiences. Sunshine Fund recipients are prioritized by their focus on healthy communities, food and economic security, natural resource protection and sustainable recreation in the Green Mountains. Through a mix of community- and brewery-led initiatives, the SIP has donated over $2 million to worthy causes since 2018.
It’s a win for everyone – great customer service, delicious foods and brews, and charitable giving! To learn more about how your donation supports Neighbors in Action, visit their website: NeighborsInActionVT.org
