The current COVID-19 crisis has impacted the service industry in a way no one could have ever imagined. Restaurants, bars, cafes, and coffee shops have been closing left and right across the country with no foreseeable light at the end of the tunnel. While it is absolutely crucial that we stay as positive as possible and plan for what's next, it doesn't change the fact that thousands of workers have been left without work overnight.
We have had to make many very difficult decisions over the last several days and anticipate having to make more as this continues. We've closed more than half our locations and will be closing the remainder of the locations on Sunday 3/22 at 4 pm.
We are hoping to raise $50,000 to help all our incredible crew who have been put on leave or furloughed in order to make this transitional period as seamless as we can and so that they can come back on when things stabilize and people start venturing out to get their much-needed coffee.
We know this is a trying time for everyone, not just those of us in the service industry. Any help we can get we will take. We know we'll come through this even stronger and we can't wait to start serving you once again in the very near future.
All funds will be dispersed to our baristas and support staff impacted by this unprecedented time in our history.
