Redneck Blinds, for example, is doing their part, giving away $25,000 in prizes to five lucky holiday contest winners, in addition to donating $1 per contest entry up to $25,000 to Convoy of Hope. Convoy is a nonprofit, humanitarian organization that serves impoverished, hurting and hungry people worldwide. And…if you make a donation to Convoy, Redneck Charities will match that, too, up to an additional $25,000.
