BUFFALO, New York – Orvis Buffalo is pleased to announce their “Giveback Days” event taking place throughout the month of September. The outdoor retailer is partnering with Buffalo Niagara Waterkeeper, a nonprofit dedicated to protecting and restoring the Buffalo and Niagara rivers, as well as surrounding waters.
“Buffalo Niagara Waterkeeper is a member of the global Waterkeeper Alliance and has been instrumental in protecting the area’s clean water,” stated Adam Schroeder, Orvis Buffalo retail manager. “They have made great strides over the past five years and we’re proud to support their mission.”
In addition to a $2,000 cash donation from Orvis, the company is challenging their customers to give back, as well. During the month of September, customers donating $10 or more will receive a $10 Orvis savings card (limit one per customer).
There will be an after-hours event in the Orvis Buffalo store, 4545 Transit Road in Williamsville, on Thursday, Sept. 27, 2018, from 6-8 p.m. where the final donations will be awarded to Buffalo Niagara Waterkeeper and partner groups will be raffling off Orvis products to help raise additional funds. The public is invited to attend and there will be free refreshments and drawings for Orvis savings cards.
Orvis commits 5% of pre-tax profits to protecting and sustaining the natural world, not only now, but for all who follow.
