coffee that cares
Kaldi’s Coffee Roasting Co. is celebrating 25 years, and to mark the occasion, it’s giving back to the community by establishing a new charitable foundation. Its first partner is Missouri Baptist Medical Center’s stroke program, which will receive $1 for every bag of Kaldi’s 25th Anniversary Blend sold. The special blend features coffees from Kenya, Colombia and Guatemala and was created based on the company’s very first blend created in 1995. It will be available until the end of the year, and Kaldi’s has set a goal to raise $25,000 for the medical center.
