Tampa Based Liquor Depot Raises $20,000 for Mike Alstott Family Foundation with Charity Barrel Release
Liquor Depot owner Trey Lawson once again teamed up with former Buccaneers player Mike Alstott and the Mike Alstott Family Foundation for the store’s charity barrel fundraiser program. On Saturday, October 11th all 125 bottles available exclusively for purchase at the Liquor Depot Waters location at 7304 W Waters Avenue in Tampa were sold out. In addition, Mike Alstott was at the store for photo opportunities and signing bottles.
The barrel that Trey and Mike selected this year is a 12-year Penelope Estate Collection Rye $169.50 per bottle. (The number 50 to celebrate the Buccaneers 50th season). 100% of the proceeds from the sale of the bottles support the Mike Alstott Family Foundation.
Trey, a life-long Buccaneers fan, launched this charity barrel fundraiser back in 2021 because he is passionate about giving back and making a difference in his community. Since the start of this initiative, Liquor Depot has donated almost $60,000 to the Mike Alstott Family Foundation from 100% of the proceeds of three barrels they have done together. The fourth barrel raised $20,000 from the community’s support. The Mike Alstott Family Foundation’s mission is to uplift the minds, hearts and spirits of families and children on their way to realizing their full potential through various events, assistance programs and celebrations.
“Single barrels are incredibly unique and once they are sold, they are gone forever, never to be replicated. We were excited to once again offer this exclusive barrel opportunity to help raise funds for the Mike Alstott Family Foundation and make a difference in our community. We had a great turnout,” said Trey Lawson, owner of Liquor Depot.
