One of the wonderful benefits of a third, online dimension to our lives is the sheer mobilization of people that can occur quickly.
This was demonstrated to me as I sat at my computer screen, mouth agape, looking at the total raised in last months Menu for Hope III campaign which raised over $60,000 in a very short period of time. Good Grape was a proud participant and I always endorse local community engagement, as well.
While the monies for Menu for Hope III went to a UN Food Program to aid worldwide hunger issues, all areas of need are important to those that are passionate about that particular subject.
So, today’s post, while perhaps not as weighty as worldwide hunger relief, is important as well.
Jason Goelz, a very good guy, something of an Indiana native son, and a winemaker with his own label and developing winery called Sapid is sounding the clarion bell for wine sales … sales in the name of Dakota.
I’m a dog lover and can empathize with doing whatever it takes to maintain your dog’s health. And, so it is with enthusiasm that I urge you to consider buying some vino to help the cause.
Dakota is his dog and Dakota, it seems, got into an accident and tore his ACL. Normally the domain of football and basketball players, the ACL is a ligament in the knee that always requires surgical repair—on both man and man’s best friend.
In order to offset medical costs and drive some sales of his tasty and reasonably priced wines, Jason is offering 25% off of a three bottle purchase at his web site by February 1st. www.sapidwines.com. Just make sure you use the promotional code “Dakota” to receive your discount.
Do it because you just like to buy wine online. Do it to help out a furry friend, do it because Jason’s wines are very good price performers, but just do it. You can find out more about Sapid and their wines at this link.
