Neighbors & Nations

Using our business as a tool for change - investing in organizations that bring hope and transformation, both in our own community and around the world.

Loving our neighbors - near and far.

Mark 12:31 - Galatians 6:2

As followers of Jesus, we believe that it is our responsibility to love and serve our neighbors and make a difference in the world. We believe in making a lasting impact both locally and globally by supporting organizations that are making a Kingdom impact in our community (Neighbors) and beyond (Nations).

Our Neighbors & Nations program is rooted in our commitment to utilize our business as a tool for change - investing in organizations that bring hope and transformation in the lives of others.

We support these organizations through financial contributions, tip donations, mentorship, and various other forms of partnership - including our Coffee & Tea for a Cause program.

Neighbors

In our community.

Organizations doing Kingdom work right here in Columbus and Central Ohio - the people and places we see every week.

Nations

Around the world.

Partners carrying hope, education, and transformation to communities across the globe - often the places our coffee comes from.

Grounded in the greatest commandment.

Mark 12:30-31

"And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."

Galatians 6:2

"Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ."

Three ways we show up as partners.

Partnership takes many forms. Some are financial, some are relational - all are rooted in a belief that business can be a tool for transformation.

Direct financial contributions

Regular giving or tip donations to organizations.

Mentorship & Encouragement

Time, expertise, and presence. Showing up to help with events, offering counsel, and walking alongside the organizations we back.

Coffee & Tea for a Cause

A custom bag of coffee or tea, co-branded with a partner org, with a guaranteed portion of every sale going to their work.

Get to know the organizations bringing hope & transformation.

Each organization was chosen because of the Kingdom work they do - daily, faithfully, often quietly. Visit their sites to learn more or give directly.
