Giving Spirit program
In January 2021 we introduced our “Giving Spirit” program: each quarter, SMWS Canada donates to charity 100% of its profit from the sales of a designated bottle.
January 2024 will mark the 4th year of our program, and to date we’ve donated over $19,000.00 to various charities thanks to the bottles you’ve purchased! This past July we chose The War Amps as our recipient charity: “Making a difference in the lives of amputees by providing financial assistance for artificial limbs, peer support and information on all aspects of living with amputation" and we have donated over $1115.64 from the sales of Cask No. GN6.3 “Yearning for bubbles.”
This quarter we’re focusing our attention on the OurWhisky Foundation: “a non-profit organisation recognising, supporting and empowering women working in whisky around the world, while advocating for a more inclusive and diverse industry.”
Our Giving Spirit bottle this quarter is Cask No. 53.464 "Hebridean hamper" which was selected for bottling by an all-female tasting panel and bottled for International Women's Day 2024. We’ll donate profits from the sales of this bottle to the OurWhisky Foundation.
We hope you’ll continue to support the Giving Spirit program by buying a great bottle of whisky and supporting an important and urgent cause—that’s something to raise a glass to!
