Today is the final day for the Toys for Tots fundraiser. We have raised $1,100 so far. Every $5 donation earns one entry to win a 2025 Old Fitz VVS Bourbon, as well as a Stagg (Jr.) 24-D, which was generously donated by Appalachian Bourbon Society once donations surpassed the $1,000 mark. Bonus whiskey surprise giveaways are also possible! (full fundraiser information here: theavgdrinker.com/toys-for-tots/)

If you would still like to donate, donations are being accepted via Venmo.
