CellarPass Cares
#PasstheBuck is our charity program designed to support the local communities we serve. Since launching the program in 2009, CellarPass has donated more than $1.1 million back to many wonderful organizations working hard to makes lives better.
Today, with more hospitality folks requiring assistance more than ever before, we’ve accelerated the #PasstheBuck program to provide more funding to more people- and distribute the funds more quickly.
Starting October 1st, we will be awarding a $500 grant 2x per month that recipients can spend on whatever their business needs to overcome their business challenges, from re-hiring employees, buying supplies or launching a digital marketing campaign- whatever they need.
#PasstheBuck is there to lend a hand, because after all, we’re a small, inspiring business effected by the pandemic, too!

Our Mission
Helping compassionate people like you, grow a successful business
Whether you are running a small sole proprietorship or something much bigger, the challenges level the playing field. Those the adapt and innovate will prevail- and cash is the energy that will keep our businesses alive, healthy, and thriving, but as capital gets tight and unexpected bills mount, there’s times when we all run short.
Being a small business owner, you’ve already proven you have the talent and determination to succeed, but some extra money sure would change things. Our #PasstheBuck program has got your back because we care- and we’re a small business that has been effected by this pandemic, too!
Open to all currently-active CellarPass reservation plan subscribers, follow our guidelines below to learn more about how you can enter into our grant program

DECEMBER 2019 WINNER
Women's & Children's Alliance of Boise
“It only takes a single person to affect change in our community and we are so very grateful to be the recipient of the generosity of so many. The funds raised through this festive evening will help those who are in vulnerable and often dangerous situations and need the shelter, counseling and other critical life-saving services we can offer at the WCA—free of charge—because of the generosity of our community.
We are humbled and grateful and look forward to next year’s event.”
- Bea Black, Executive Director for the WCA
