What if a bottle… a brand… or a simple yes could change a veteran’s life?
For the past few years, I’ve poured my heart into supporting veterans’ charities, and last year I took a leap and with the help of an amazing support system I launched my first-ever charity event. This year marks the 2nd annual P.A. Whiskey Show (P.A.W.S.)!! I’m incredibly proud of what this community has already made possible.
Through the generosity of the whiskey community, we’ve raised over $120,000 for Team Foster, a nonprofit that provides service dogs to veterans. I’ve seen firsthand how passion, generosity, and community can turn into real, life-changing impact and that’s part why this work matters so deeply to me. Many of you know that a few years ago, I lost a Veteran I loved to untreated PTSD which resulted in him taking his own life... this remains building a legacy for him and healing for me.
The 2026 P.A. Whiskey Show will take place on
📍 Saturday, May 2, 2026
📍 Main Line Armory in Malvern, PA
bringing together the Greater Philadelphia and East Coast whiskey community.
So I’m putting this out there…
👉 Are you in the whiskey business — or do you know someone who is?
👉 Do you work with a brand or business that believes in giving back?
👉 Do you care about supporting veterans — and the dogs who serve beside them?
We’re currently looking for:
Sponsors who want to make an impact and connect with an engaged community
Donations to help build unforgettable raffle baskets, including:
🥃 bottles and branded merchandise
🎟️ tickets to PA/NJ whiskey or spirits events
🍽️ experiences from bars or restaurants
🐾 dog-related items, pet brands, training gear, accessories, or experiences
🎁 anything that would make a whiskey enthusiast or dog lover say WOW
This isn’t just about whiskey.
It’s about people showing up for people.
And about the dogs who help change lives.
If this speaks to you — or if you know someone it should reach — please comment, message me, or share this post. Your connection could truly change a life. 🥃🐾❤️
