From the moment the enthusiast community learned about the unfortunate Silver Trail Distillery fire that injured two, people have asked me how they can help. The Kentucky Distillers Association has established a fund with the proceeds going to the Rogers cousins, who were badly burned.

According to the KDA, here’s how you can donate: Send a check to the “Lifting Spirits – Jay & Kyle Support Fund” Addressed to: CFSB Bank , PO Box 467; Benton, KY 42025. Online donations are set up through the KDA’s website.

Furthermore, I’m working with other bourbon authors to set up a book signing with a portion of the proceeds going to the victims. Follow the blog and Twitter for updates.
