Ami Carmel, a lifestyle boutique in the heart of Carmel, will host a monthly charity fundraiser, Sip, Savor, Shop & Support a Cause, at the shop in 2023.

Sip, Savor, Shop & Support a Cause Series will be held on the first Monday of each month with extended hours from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and 20% of the day’s gross sales going to a sponsored nonprofit such as Animal Friends Rescue Project, Peace of Mind Dog Rescue, Carmel Bach Festival, Carmel Cares, and more.

The month that each of these non-profits are featured, Ami will give all the organization’s volunteers a 20% discount throughout the featured month.

The fundraiser is keeping in line with owner Annee Martin’s vision to expand the store’s outreach to local nonprofits, charities and community groups.

 

“My vision for Ami Carmel is to have it relate to the community and what we’re doing,” says Martin. “We’re right by the Carmel Post Office, so I want to be an anchor for the neighborhood and the community. The main thing I want to do is to support nonprofits and volunteers that do good for our community. I believe that if you do good, good comes back to you. That’s what I want to put out to the community and the world.”
