Columbus, Ohio (PRWEB) August 15, 2017 -- Cancer Support Community Central Ohio could receive $1,000 if enough viewers click on the story in CoffeeTalk magazine about its Grounds for Hope™ program. The charity was nominated by Columbus, Ohio coffee roaster Crimson Cup Coffee & Tea, its Grounds for Hope™ partner.
“We’re grateful to CoffeeTalk for providing a forum to raise awareness and funds for this vital organization,” said Crimson Cup Founder and President Greg Ubert. “Grounds for Hope™ raises funds for programs that support those living with, through and beyond cancer.”
Grounds for Hope™ is one of 17 philanthropic projects featured in CoffeeTalk's 2017 Making a Difference issue. CoffeeTalk will donate $1000 to the project that generates the most page views through September 30, 2017.
The program is a unique partnership between Crimson Cup Coffee & Tea and Cancer Support Community Central Ohio. Crimson Cup roasts Grounds for Hope™ coffee in small batches in three certified organic blends: House Blend, Dark Roast and Decaf.
In addition to viewing the CoffeeTalk Grounds for Hope™ story, Columbus coffee lovers can also support Cancer Support Community Central Ohio by purchasing Grounds for Hope™ coffee online or at area Giant Eagle stores.
For every bag of coffee purchased, Crimson Cup donates $3 to help with programs and support for those living with, through and beyond cancer. To date, Crimson Cup has donated more than $80,000 in cash and $45,000 of in-kind services to Cancer Support Community Central Ohio through the program.
Ubert also serves on the Board of Directors for Cancer Support Community Central Ohio, which is one of 62 chapters of Cancer Support Community, a national non-profit organization dedicated to providing free emotional support, education and hope for people with cancer and their loved ones.
The mission of Cancer Support Community Central Ohio is to ensure that all people impacted by cancer are empowered by knowledge, strengthened by action and sustained by community.
