Mainland Gives Back!

A big part of the Hawaiian culture is contributing to your community. That is what Aloha Spirit is all about, right? The Mainland believes in sharing with our community as well. We offer a benefit volunteer day twice a year to our employees in which they get 2 paid days off to volunteer within the community. One of the projects we have been involved in for the last couple of years is donating coffee to St. James Urban Coffee House. This is a shelter for the homeless of Denver. They are a 501c3 organization which means they are not for profit and all of their money is raised via charitable donations and the shelter rely on volunteers to run it. The coffee house's biggest expense is.. believe it or not, coffee. Last year, we donated enough coffee to get them through the entire year and when we got the call this year, we couldn't say no. Everyone is forecasting a very hard winter here in Denver so we wanted to show our friends downtown what Aloha Spirit is...
Here is what John, the Director of the coffee house wrote us after we delivered some coffee..."Dear Maui Wowi,
The Coffee House has been giving away coffee to Denver's homeless and chronically mentally ill for 25 years. We love doing this favor for God. It is sooooo cool that Maui Wowi joins in on our endeavor. Imagine the magnificent paradox. Maui Wowi is the most elegant coffee I've ever experienced. Our clientele are the very least affluent population in this city. The combination of opulence and poverty makes me smile again and again.We are grateful for your participation. May you prosper beyond all your wildest dreams!"
