Three cheers for a local business giving back to those most in need.

Okanagan Spirits Craft Distillery in Vernon and Kelowna launched its annual Holiday Hot Meals campaign Nov. 28, where the distillery donates three hot meals for every spirit advent calendar, gift pack, or full-size bottle sold. 

The meals are funded locally at the Upper Room Mission in Vernon and the Kelowna Gospel Mission.

The local, family-run distillery started the charitable initiative in 2019 in an effort to give back to members in their local communities who they felt could use a bit of a lift during the holiday season. The campaign is now in its sixth year and is continuing to grow thanks to the tremendous 91裸聊视频渂uy local91裸聊视频� movement which is alive and well in the Okanagan Valley.

Over the last few years, thanks to the support of good-hearted fine spirits lovers throughout the Okanagan, the distillery has been able to donate the funds to provide thousands of hot meals to the local Missions in Vernon and Kelowna, where the distillery operates.
