PHILADELPHIA – Dietz & Watson is all about feeding families, so for the next month through April 30, they are matching all of the proceeds from their ecommerce website to World Central Kitchen – an organization that has been serving fresh meals to families across Ukraine and in other troubled areas around the world since 2010.
The Dietz.Store features a variety of fun meat and cheese inspired apparel and accessories, and even offers some shelf stable snacking items.
In addition to the proceeds earned during that time, Dietz & Watson will match the dollar amount in support of the organization.
“We want to do what we can to help the people that are suffering in Ukraine and the refugees’, said Lauren Eni, VP Brand Strategy and part of the 4thgeneration of family ownership at Dietz & Watson. “We talk a lot about being a family business and about feeding families – and that’s exactly what we hope to do here.
“As American businesses, we need to all step up now and do what we can to help end this humanitarian crisis. We are pledging a donation of at least $10,000 to the World Central Kitchen in the month of April, regardless of how much business the store actually does during the month – and hopefully more,” added Eni.
