PLEASE support your local food providers and STAY WELL!
After a day of reading and watching the news about Covid-19, anyone could use a drink. But many of our favorite bars and lounges are closed!
Fortunately, our friends at the Martignetti Companies are helping ease the problem by donating $250,000 to support hospitality workers who have been affected by the pandemic.
As New England’s leading distributor of fine wines and spirits, Martignetti has close ties to most of the places where New Englanders go to relax and shake off bad news. Who better, then, to come to the aid of the people who run these restaurants and bars who are having to live off of take-out and delivery orders instead of enjoying the neighborly camaraderie for which they are known?
Martignetti’s donation does not stop in New England, however. In fact, they are giving to charities across the country, from The New Hampshire Lodging & Restaurant Foundations’ Hospitality Employee Relief Fund, to The National Restaurant Association Educational Foundations’, Employee Relief Fund, which supports not only today’s hospitality workers but those training to support them once things reopen.
So the next time you need something to wash down more craziness, look for one of the many brands offered by the Martignetti companies, or order some to go from your favorite neighborhood venue.
Drink today so that others may eat tomorrow!
