Brewing Hope: The Human Bean’s Guest Barista Day Program Making a Difference in Northern Colorado
The Human Bean’s Guest Barista Day program has once again demonstrated its tremendous success in supporting charitable causes and making a positive impact on the community. On Thursday, May 11, Human Bean Northern Colorado dedicated their Guest Barista Day to raising funds for Pathways, a prominent provider of hospice care, palliative care, and grief and loss services in Northern Colorado. By donating 10 percent of sales made at the Fort Collins 1822 S. College Avenue location on that day, Human Bean actively contributed to Pathways’ noble cause.
The collaboration between Human Bean and Pathways exemplifies the power of community engagement and highlights the essential role businesses can play in supporting local nonprofits. During Guest Barista Day, representatives from Pathways stepped into the role of guest baristas, not only to assist with the daily operations but also to engage with customers and share valuable information about the organization’s facilities and mission. This unique opportunity allowed customers to learn more about Pathways’ important work in hospice care, palliative care, and grief support, creating a deeper understanding and connection to the cause.
The Guest Barista Day program, pioneered by The Human Bean, serves as a remarkable platform for nonprofits to connect with a broader audience and raise much-needed funds. Through this initiative, participating nonprofits can engage with customers directly, sharing their stories, distributing informational materials, and raising awareness about their mission. By providing a space for these organizations to educate and connect with the community, The Human Bean enables customers to contribute meaningfully to causes they care about.
In addition to the ten percent of sales donated to Pathways, The Human Bean’s Guest Barista Day program also incorporates the “Fill the Cup” campaign, allowing customers to make cash donations to support the featured nonprofit. This multifaceted approach provides multiple avenues for individuals to contribute, accommodating different preferences and ensuring that everyone can participate in making a difference.
The culmination of this successful collaboration was marked by the presentation of a check from The Human Bean to Pathways on June 5, 2023. The generous donation of $319.90 is a testament to the dedication and commitment of both organizations, as well as the support of the community. This financial contribution will undoubtedly aid Pathways in their ongoing efforts to provide compassionate care and support to those in need.
The success of The Human Bean’s Guest Barista Day program serves as a shining example of how businesses can leverage their resources and platforms to make a positive impact in their communities. By facilitating connections between nonprofits and customers, this initiative fosters a sense of collective responsibility and empowers individuals to support causes that matter to them. Together, we can create a stronger, more compassionate community and make a lasting difference in the lives of those in need.
