Yuengling Donates 500 Care Kits for Service Members

On Monday November 23rd, 2020, D.G. Yuengling & Son, Inc, America’s Oldest Brewery, created hundreds of care packages for Operation Gratitude, a leading nonprofit organization focused on forging strong bonds between Americans and their military, to show their appreciation to service members this holiday season.

Yuengling 6th generation family member Debbie Yuengling and brewery employees created hundreds of kits that will benefit U.S. servicemen and women, first responders, veterans and their families. This donation builds upon the care kits they created at their Tampa facility last month. In total, Yuengling created and donated over 500 care kits to support Operation Gratitude this holiday season.

The kits include: toiletries such as dental floss, deodorant, lip balm, mouthwash and hand lotion, Yuengling branded stickers and letters of appreciation from Yuengling employees.

Though Yuengling’s Lagers for Heroes program, the brewery supports nonprofits, such as Operation Gratitude, and advance programs that positively impact veterans and their families.
