Charitable Wines

June 8, 2010 By Rhino Wino

                Donating your change at the grocery store checkout is a great way to help charities, but not the best.  You don’t get to pick out the charity you donate to at the grocery store checkout, sending your money to the organization of your choice is a bit of a hassle.  But what if you could buy something you already buy, and pick from an array of charities to instantly donate money to. Well you can do just that with Charity Wines.  This company has made donating a breeze by pairing each of their wines with a sports star, specifically 25 major league baseball players, and letting them pick a charity for the proceeds to go to.  These special wines are named after the player they are linked to, like Jorge Cabaret is the name of the wonderful vintage named after the Yankee’s Jorge Posada.  Sampling buying a bottle of these vintages is making a charitable donation.  It is really that easy.  Though the donation is not the only reason to buy these wines, you will want to drink them of course too.  These marvelous vintages are perfect as gifts or just to treat yourself.
Originally expected to be a small effort to improve the world, it has obviously taken off with a zest. This cheery tradition started with 3 wines named after Red Sox players that ended up being the biggest preorder in Massachusetts’ history.   People love these wines and it shows in the donations made so far, but they only release of only 3 players per year. Don’t let the opportunity pass you by, get your wine bags ready for some shopping that doubles as a donation.  Then you can feel good that you are supporting a good cause with every delightful sip of these aromatic wines.
