Caribou Coffee Cares
Starting This September, We're Gathering Quite the Herd to Give Back!
MINNEAPOLIS - Aug. 28, 2018 // PRNewswire // - Like a good cup of coffee, a great cause has a way of bringing people together. Through Caribou Coffee Cares, we're teaming up with the Minnesota Vikings, the Minnesota Gophers and Love Your Melon to support University of Minnesota's Masonic Children's Hospital. Because, as a team, we can give better by giving together!
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and Caribou Coffee Cares will look to give back with our hometown partners. 10% of proceeds from Vikings Blend, Row the Boat Gopher Blend, and our brand new exclusive Love Your Melon beanies will go back to University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital.
Caribou Coffee Partners With Love Your Melon
Caribou Coffee and Love Your Melon teamed up to create two exclusive beanies that will only be available for purchase at Caribou Coffee locations and on CaribouCoffee.com. The beanies will be available in all Caribou locations and online starting August 30th, and 10% of proceeds will go back to University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital.
"It is a natural fit for Love Your Melon to partner with Caribou Coffee as we have similar corporate philosophies and share a home in Minnesota. We are proud to provide customers with our high-quality products in Caribou stores this fall and team up to make a difference for children and families battling cancer," said Zachary Quinn, President and Co-Founder of Love Your Melon.
Vikings Blend
This limited-edition medium roast blend is available in 10-ounce ground bags at all Minnesota Caribou locations and on CaribouCoffee.com. 10% of proceeds from the Vikings Blend sold at Caribou locations and online will go to University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital. Vikings Blend is also available in most Minnesota grocery stores, and k-cups will be available in early September.
Row The Boat Gopher Blend
Back by popular demand for its second Gopher football season, this limited-edition medium roast, both bold and spirited, is designed to fuel the passion of Gopher fans. 10% of proceeds from Row the Boat Gopher Blend sold in all Minnesota Caribou locations and on CaribouCoffee.com will go to University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital.
"Working together we can give even more," says Kayleen Tecker, Partnership Marketing Manager at Caribou Coffee. "Our guests have been loving Row the Boat Gopher Blend and our brand new, Vikings Blend already this fall. We couldn't be more excited to partner with Love Your Melon, who also calls Minnesota home. All three partners already work closely with University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital. We are proud to join this team to support kids and families battling cancer in our hometown."
