## Story

In Oregon alone, between the Providence Foundation and Asante Rogue Regional Medical Center, we have helped fund approximately 145 mammograms per year for a total of over 1600 mammograms to date. This is in addition to funding follow-up care and ongoing patient support.

This year marks our 15th anniversary of our annual Coffee for a Cure event. Together, with our amazing customers and franchisees, we have raised over $1.8 million dollars.

We work directly with foundations that are local to each of our drive-thru locations. We help with preventive scans for early detection, as well as education, and support patients with expenses while going through treatment. The donated funds are allocated to the patients that need financial help the most. Since starting Coffee for a Cure, fifteen years ago, we have lost a barista, a franchise owner, family, and friends to breast cancer.

The Human Bean is on a mission to inspire authentic human connections, one cup at a time, and to give back and support the communities that we serve. Please visit any of The Human Bean locations on this day to make a purchase, and all proceeds will be donated to a local breast cancer care center in that community. We will also have tumbler travel mugs, bracelets, as well as other merchandise with the Coffee for a Cure logo for sale that day.

The Human Bean has a long history of partnering with local organizations and giving back. We continue to focus on building authentic human connections…with a bean on top. Together we can make a difference.
