In 2013, we named our “FAMILIAR” tier of wines after the Spanish translation of the word, “family.” These drink now wines are meant to be generously shared with those that you love.
With the holiday and family on our mind, this July 4th, Dirty and Rowdy will be donating 100% of any 2018 Familiar wine sales* today only to charities dedicated to helping reunite families that have been separated at the border.
On the day where many of us celebrate with our families, we encourage you to take a moment and help reunite others with theirs.
Thank you for everyone for the kind words. We had a great response (and orders are still coming in). We are happy we were able to do something for those in need.
Along with the orders, we were sent some beautiful and touching messages. Kate and I read these together tonight- they mean a lot.
With your help on July 4th, we donated 100% of our Familiar Wine sales to charities committed to reuniting families that have been separated at the border.
After sending out our initial email, a customer reached out to let us know about Immigrant Families Together. She told us how the organization was directly responsible for reuniting one of her students with his mother, and shared their struggle and reunification featured in the New York Times.
Today, we were proud to donate $5300 to this important cause. The funds were split between RAICES and Immigrant Families Together.
We appreciate all of the emails we received over weekend from so many of you. Thank you for sharing your stories and for taking action.
