We are excited to partner with companies who are eager to move our mission forward. Entering into a cause marketing agreement with the Chapter shows your company's support for the end of Alzheimer's disease. The list of companies supporting the Alzheimer's Association nationally and locally is growing. Here are some examples:

Ithaca Coffee Company

The Ithaca Coffee Company donates $2 from the sale of its special French Roast and Colombia Sierra Nevada roasts to the Chapter. This is the Chapter's longest cause marketing relationship, which started when the Crowley family began to donate the proceeds from "An Evening To Remember" to the Chapter. "An Evening To Remember" is an annual gala event presented by Triphammer Wine & Spirits, the sister company of ICC, which is also owned by the Crowley family. The coffees can be purchased at either of ICC's locations -- Triphammer Mall or Gateway Commons -- in Ithaca or on its website.

Lakeland Winery

Lakeland Winery, a Syracuse-based custom winemaker, will donate $2 from the sale of each 750mL bottle of its Pleasanty Pomegranate or Wild Blueberry wines between June 9 and September 30, 2012. Lakeland Winery's facility in Syracuse western suburbs sells kits to make your own wine, as well as its own private-label wines.  

Sackets Harbor Brewing Company

The Sackets Harbor Brewing Company will donate 50 cents from each pint of 1812 Ale and 1812 Light purchased at their brewpub, 212 W. Main St. in Sackets Harbor, between July 9 to 16. 1812 is the family-owned brewery's flagship beer and can be found in bottles throughout Central New York.
