A Pour for the Brave
The American-Made Heroes Foundation Fund, oh what a sight! Launched in the year of vision – 2020 – it continues the hallowed tradition which began with the Evan Williams American-Made Heroes program and its special labeling in 2015. With a tally of 48 veteran heroes already on the Evan Williams roll of honor and a donation kitty that’s $450,000 strong, these special edition bottles are making waves in the nonprofit veteran support sphere.
Bourbon, Bravery, and the Undying American Spirit
“American-made and American-owned” – a mantra that Evan Williams Bourbon wears proudly on its sleeve. “It is our salute to the brave,” claims Julie Cole, Evan Williams Bourbon Senior Brand Manager, “an ode to those who serve with their hearts both home and away.” It’s not just about sharing heroic stories, folks. It’s about amplifying calls to action and championing causes that touch the veteran community deeply, many of which address key concerns like PTSD and TBI recovery programs.
Bottling Courage, One Hero at a Time
