Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits will match 100 percent of all employee donations made to three charitable organizations supporting Ukraine relief during the next 90 days.
Southern Glazer’s has chosen to support World Central Kitchen, United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere through its matching campaign for Ukraine relief. Employees are able to contribute through the company’s internal giving platform, VolunCheers Online, in order to be eligible for the donation match.
“Southern Glazer’s stands in support of the Ukrainian people,” said CEO Wayne E. Chaplin. “We are deeply saddened by the crisis and our hearts are with those who have been impacted by this terrible situation. Our family values represent a spirit of inclusiveness and giving back that is part of our cultural DNA, which is why we’ve chosen to support three organizations that have stepped in to provide much-needed aid. Our employees never hesitate to lend a helping hand in times of crisis, and we are happy to amplify their generosity through this campaign.”
