CSR partnerships

As part of its CSR efforts, Belvedere Vodka's Raw Spirit programme entails a partnership with agricultural distilleries to promote and protect rye sustainability in Poland. Also, its (Belvedere)Red limited edition bottle programme donates 50% of profits to the Global Fund to fight AIDS/HIV in Africa. To this day, the programme has provided enough funding to support nearly 40,000 HIV positive women with access to life-saving treatment that stops the transmission of HIV to their babies.
