116: How a Goodwill Wine company is giving back with David Laity
In this episode, we talk to David Laity. He is the CEO of Goodwill Wine, an organisation that gives back 50% of everything they earned to charities their customers are passionate about. All of their wine is vegan and we took a look at what makes a wine vegan and what some wineries might add other than grapes to not be classified as vegan.
During this episode, we take a look at how David was inspired to give back after a devastating fire. We also talk about their quirky wine labels, what inspired it and how you can do good by having a glass of their vino ad supporting an organisation close to your heart.
Episode 085 with Leif Cocks, the founder and president of the Orangutan Project.

“We have turned that $15,000 that we were given way back at the start into $350,000 we have donated.”
