Thank You - Pinky Promise Coffee!

Veteran and former nurse anesthetist Sean Grorich decided to pursue his lifelong love of coffee and founded Pinky Promise Coffee Roasters in January 2020. Along with being a great business owner, he has a kind heart and has founded Coffee for a Cause, he selects a flavor of coffee and donates 12% of the sales for the year to a designated nonprofit. This year, Door County Habitat for Humanity benefitted from the sales of Warm Up Winter flavored coffee.

On Monday, December 6, 2021, Sean donated $575.00 to Door County Habitat for Humanity from the Coffee for a Cause sales. Thank you Sean and Pinky Promise Coffee for the work you do to support Door County and your generous donation to Door County Habitat for Humanity.  

Please support this generous business sponsor!

 

 

 

Artists Support Door County Habitat

Ardus DuBois  is a self taught artist as is her daughter, Sherry. They share the shop that is filled to the brim with their many original pieces re-purposed or upcycled for a second life. I asked Sherry where they discover the raw materials for their artistry and she answered simply “everywhere including the Habitat ReStore.”

“Supporting Habitat is a natural for us; since they are all about building homes for people and we’re all about decorating them.”

 Ardus and her daughter happily participate in the bird house and butterfly house projects and look forward contributing to the continuing success of Habitat for Humanity. Their shop is located at 59 S. Madison Street on the West side of Sturgeon Bay. We thank them for their support.
