Okanagan Spirits Craft Distillery has kicked off its Holiday Hot Meals campaign, in which the Vernon and 91大黄鸭 distillery donates three hot meals for every spirits advent calendar or full-sized bottle sold.

The distillery started the charitable campaign in 2019 in an effort to give back to members of the community who could use a boost during the holiday season .

Now in its third year, the campaign continues to grow thanks to the success of the buy-local movement in the Okanagan.

鈥淲e launch this campaign each year on Black Friday weekend to put a different kind of twist on the usual mad consumerism that is wrapped up in that day and the whole holiday spending push鈥�, said Tyler Dyck, CEO of the distillery. 鈥淚t鈥檚 really quite simple; we 鈥榩ay it forward鈥� by donating on behalf of those who wish to treat those on their holiday shopping list to a fine whisky, gin or vodka, or even that perfect holiday spirits advent calendar, but also like to know that their purchase goes towards making the holidays a little bit nicer for those that are less fortunate.鈥�

Over the last few years the distillery has been able to donate the funds to provide thousands of hot meals to Vernon鈥檚 Upper Room Mission and the 91大黄鸭 Gospel Mission.
