A New Era for the Coffee Connection
The Max and Marian Farash Charitable Foundation put $50,000 of “faith” in the Coffee Connection’s social entrepreneurship plans to open the Charlotte store and continue to grow our not-for-profit business and expand our program of providing longterm, continuous, comprehensive support for people in recovery from addiction, including employment training. Our plans include creating new jobs, training more people for successful employment, opening an online store, and more.
New Era Campaign goal: $100,000
