With Valentine's Day nearly upon us, Crook & Marker, the organic hard seltzer brand, is launching a steamy campaign, appropriately named 'OnlyCans,' that helps rescue dogs in need.
In a play on the popular risky content subscription service, the brand paired some "handsome hunks with hard seltzer and hard-to-resist rescue puppies" for this social good campaign. The OnlyCans campaign hopes to match these adorable furry friends with forever homes.
“With OnlyCans, we’re putting our own flavorful spin on the subscription-based website that recently set the internet ablaze – while raising much needed funds to help these adorable Muddy Paws Rescue puppies find loving homes,” said Daniel Goodfellow, chief marketing officer for Crook & Marker.
“Now more than ever, we wanted to serve a bit of levity and fun into the world by giving people a one-stop destination to quench your thirst, raise some spirits and avoid the doghouse. Now that’s the power of puppy love!” he adds.
Plus, fans can help by simply sharing these steamy images from the platform. For every share, Crook & Marker will donate $1 to Muddy Paws Rescue, an NYC-based national animal rescue organization.
