Cocktail for a Cause
The feeling of giving back and contributing to our community is high on our list of things we enjoy most. It’s also a great way to get to know the challenges and opportunities our community faces and the people we get to directly impact in the process.
Despite all its challenges, 2020 was an incredible year of seeing firsthand how YOU, our customers, rallied alongside us in the journey of giving back to the city of Knoxville. We ended 2020 with a bang with our Second Harvest Food Bank initiative giving 1,500+ warm meals to East Tennesseans in need right before the holidays. We matched every $100 gift card purchase with 15 meals and we couldn’t have done it without you.
The support and feedback of this effort was so overwhelming that we’ve decided to build upon the spirit giving throughout 2021. Each quarter we will choose a local organization, nonprofit or charity to support by donating proceeds from the specified promotion chosen. Best of all, we get to do this together again.
Now through February 28th, 2021, we will be supporting YWCA Knoxville!
About YWCA Knoxville
YWCA Knoxville is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all. They serve more than 11,300 women, children and families through a variety of high quality programs that are located at three sites in downtown Knoxville, East Knoxville and Oak Ridge. YWCA serves women and their families year-round, with programs ranging from victim advocacy services, to transitional housing, to after-school enrichment programs. They also provide support groups, counseling and prevention services for victims of domestic violence. To say that they are deserving would be the understatement of the century. The impact they’re making will be seen for generations to come.
How can you help support YWCA?
Oliver Royale and Peter Kern Library will be donating $1 from every Royale Roulette or Reading Recommendation cocktail that is purchased to YWCA. Our Royale Roulette/Reading Recommendation are rotating cocktails that are new and different every day, which means every time you visit us and purchase these cocktails, you will be supporting YWCA and their mission! We will even be donating a percentage of our sales from our wine dinners to YWCA. This initiative ends on February 28th, so stop by often for cocktails for a cause at either Oliver Royale or Peter Kern Library today!
Join us for indoor dining or enjoy our outdoor heated patio tables for a great night out. If you haven’t tried our winter 2020 menu, call and make a reservation today. There is still time to enjoy those menu items and they pair perfectly with our Royale Roulette cocktail. Who doesn’t love a great cocktail that supports a great cause?
