Project Impact: With funds raised through the Grounds for Hope™ program, Cancer Support Community Central Ohio can provide vital programs that are critical components of complete cancer care at no cost to thousands of cancer patients, survivors, caregivers, and loved ones.
Project Description Grounds for Hope™ is a unique partnership between Crimson Cup Coffee & Tea and Cancer Support Community Central Ohio to raise funds for programs that support those living with, through and beyond cancer.
Backed by evidence that the best cancer care includes social and emotional support, Cancer Support Community offers these programs and services at no cost to men, women and children with any type or stage of cancer and to their loved ones and friends.
Cancer Support Community serves all people with cancer—any diagnosis, any stage—and their families and caregivers. A comfortable setting helps people find a sense of community among others with whom they can share, learn and improve their quality of life.
Crimson Cup roasts Grounds for Hope™ coffee in small batches in three certified organic blends: House Blend, Dark Roast and Decaf: - Organic House Blend, which boasts a smooth, nutty flavor, is blended of beans from Central America, Indonesia and Africa. - Organic Dark Roast, with its intensely rich and full flavor, originates in Central America and Indonesia. - Organic Decaf, a decaffeinated version of the House Blend, can be enjoyed day or night.
Benefits 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 Grounds for Hope™ program.
All programs, including support groups, are managed and facilitated by licensed mental health professionals who are specifically trained in Cancer Support Community philosophy, methodology and administration. Cancer Support Community provides only programs that are both purposeful and proven to be effective by sound research.
For every bag of coffee purchased, Crimson Cup donates $3 to help with programs and support for those living with, through and beyond cancer. The Cancer Support Community (CSC) is a national non-profit organization dedicated to providing free emotional support, education and hope for people with cancer and their loved ones. Cancer Support Community Central Ohio is one of 62 chapters of CSC. The mission of Cancer Support Community Central Ohio is to ensure that all people impacted by cancer are empowered by knowledge, strengthened 22 by action and sustained by community.
Over the next several decades, more people than ever will receive a diagnosis of cancer, and more people than ever will survive cancer. Cancer Support Community is part of a national organization that provides direct programs and services for any one impacted by cancer. Cancer doesn’t just impact the person with cancer but their entire network. The organization provides more than 65 monthly programs for survivors, individuals with cancer, caregivers/ support persons, family members and children. Programs and services are always provided at no cost to avoid increasing the financial burden of those already coping with lifethreatening issues.
