Athletic Brewing Pledges $100,000 to Benefit Restaurant Industry Employees Impacted By COVID-19

Athletic Brewing Pledges $100,000 to Benefit Restaurant Industry Employees Impacted By COVID-19From Athletic Brewing:

Athletic Brewing Company has seen such huge community enthusiasm for their COVID-19 relief efforts that they are extending and increasing their initial target. What started out as a 10% donation on all online sales for a 10-weeks-campaign will now keep going until they reach $100,000.

The money will be destined to The Restaurant Employee Relief Fund, that uses 100% of the donations collected to provide grants. Restaurant industry employees experiencing unemployment and other financial hardships in the wake of COVID-19 will directly benefit from these resources.

“Many people who work in and own restaurants and bars have had their lives upended due to Covid-19. Besides the economic devastation they now find the establishments that they built at risk of not surviving. Our on-premise industry partners are an important part of what makes the craft brewing industry great - we’re a community unlike any other. We try to help each other whenever we can. In this unprecedented time those of us at Athletic wanted to do what we could to help,” said Bill Shufelt, Co-Founder, Athletic Brewing Company.

At only 50-70 calories per can, Athletic Brewing Company, brews nonalcoholic craft beer that is distributed nationwide. It can be found, purchased, and shipped directly to consumers online at https://athleticbrewing.com.
