Royal Cup Coffee Partners With Birmingham Music Lovers To Help Feed The Hungry

By Carla Davis

With the heat of summer, few people are thinking about winter’s frigid temperatures. But Royal Cup Coffee is already stepping up to help ensure that the Birmingham homeless community gets a hot meal on those cold nights.

Royal Cup donated all the proceeds raised from its Cold Brew Cool-Off Zone at Birmingham’s SlossFest music and arts festival July 15-16 to Heart to Table, a community-based charity that provides food to warming stations at Boutwell Auditorium.

“We may be a national company, but we have a passion for helping those in our backyard who need it most,” said C.J. Britton, director of Creative Services at Royal Cup Coffee in Birmingham. “With the recent revitalization downtown, it’s easy to forget people are going hungry. This is an easy, practical way we can help Heart to Table take care of those who don’t have the resources to take care of themselves.”A $3,000 donation from Royal Cup will pay for hot, nutritious meals for 10 nights for people seeking shelter, said Don Lupo, director of the Birmingham Mayor’s Office of Citizens Assistance.
