January 2025 Update

 In Monthly Update

This past year has truly challenged us! We learned about resilience, the need for creativity, and the power of perspective.

We concluded 2024 on another positive note, thanks to ALL of our loyal customers and stakeholders, both near and far, who continue to support and contribute to our mission:

Enhancing and empowering differently-abled adults through

specialized job training and community support.

We are blessed beyond measure for your unwavering alliance as we continue to build employability awareness ~

One Cup at a Time.

Our second Coffee with a Purpose benefit was held in April and with your help, we successfully raised the necessary funds to finalize our new business:

Whole CommUNITY Academy.

This GRADE 23 option for the transitional IEP student will provide person-centered career exploration services, money management, shopping on a budget & social pragmatic experiences for new friends ages 18-22 before high school graduation. Stop by the café to learn more and

JOIN US on January 9th for our OPEN HOUSE.

Nonprofit work never ends. The reality is despite Ohio being an Employment First state, this under-served population has a ways to go before the playing fields are level. While our platform promotes the benefits of adding inclusion, justice and equality to any workplace, we are tasked with turning obstacles into stepping stones and setbacks into new directions.

In appreciation for our continued milestones, please join us on

Wednesday, January 15 as we celebrate our THIRD YEAR in business ~ a free cupcake to all our guests, while supplies last!

January Monthly Drink Special

The month of January is dedicated to our friend and fellow colleague, Bobby.

Back in 2011, Bobby was the first to create a monthly special for the café and his drink is titled:

A Spiced Brown Sugar Cinnamon Latte.

His special drink continues to be a favorite among so many today. Bobby’s spirit shall forever remain with us, despite his laughter now only a memory.

He is no doubt drinking all the lattes he wants in heaven. Stop by to celebrate Bobby and toast to his life.

RIP friend

You may be gone from our sight … But you are never gone from our hearts.

Happy New Year Everyone ~
