PENNSAUKEN, N.J., Nov. 29, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- WTSO, a
leading provider of wine online, is proud to announce their
upcoming contribution efforts on one of the largest donation days
of the year: Giving Tuesday. Starting December 1, 2020, the online wine platform is
encouraging the country to nominate hunger relief organizations
that are near and dear to their hearts. Due to the pandemic this
year, millions more Americans are facing hunger this holiday
season. The company is committed to fundraising to help feed and
support communities in need.
Instead of predetermining an organization to sponsor, WTSO is
empowering customers to amplify local or national charities that
have significance to them. Executive Director at WTSO, Julie Blount states, "We talk about food and
wine together so often. With the current events that are happening
around the country, we wanted to use our platform to offer help to
people in our communities. Everybody deserves food and comfort this
winter, so we wanted a process that would allow a voice for smaller
nonprofits as well as the big names."
Nominations can be entered at wtso.com/charity until
December 8, 2020. After the
designated window closes, WTSO will select any two of the submitted
organizations. Each of the two charities will receive up to
$15,000 from a portion of proceeds
through special sale events during the week of December 16, 2020. The separate sale events won't
be the only way to donate though. In addition, customers will also
have the option to increase their personal contribution amount upon
checkout.
Hoping to spread as much awareness as possible and reach their
donation goal of $30,000, WTSO is
hoping to incentivize new visitors to take part in the giving
campaign. For those coming to the site for the first time to
support this cause, their efforts will be maximized by applying the
code HERETOHELP upon checkout during the donation events.
WTSO customers and those who are looking to make a difference
this Giving Tuesday are encouraged to submit a charity of their
choice starting December 1, 2020.
After their nomination, participants are invited to keep an eye out
for charity-based events on the WTSO website. To learn more about
