Buffalo Trace Distillery Announces “Pour It Forward for Kentucky” Charity Fundraiser
Buffalo Trace Distillery, in partnership with BlockBar, has announced the launch of the “Pour it Forward for Kentucky” Charity Fundraiser. The fundraiser will support statewide relief efforts after a deadly tornado hit Southern Kentucky in May and severe storms brought tornadoes and historic flooding to several communities across Kentucky in early April.
Sazerac and BlockBar will donate 100% of the total amount raised from the online charity fundraiser, which will benefit the American Red Cross and the Franklin County Flood Relief Fund held at the Blue Grass Community Foundation.
Offerings available through the “Pour it Forward for Kentucky” Charity Fundraiser include:
