City of North Vancouver Mayor Darrell Mussatto, baristas Matt Mazzei and Jill Nixon, and Sandra Severs, with the Canadian Mental Health Association, gather at the Blenz Coffee location at the HOpe Centre in North Vancouver to toast to the coffee shop’s Coffee By Donation Day fundraiser on Oct. 28.
On that day, all Blenz locations across B.C. will accept any amount of money for any size of drip coffee.
All funds raised will go to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. Severs and the mayor will be serving coffee at the HOpe Centre location, which is a social enterprise intended to offer an inclusive and supportive work environment for people who have experienced mental illness.
