Hat's Off to Winfield Street Coffee Giving Back Program

Recognizing that the pandemic has brought hardship to not only to the nation but to our local communities, the team at Winfield Street Coffee has started a “Giving Back” program during their reopening this summer. With all the seven Connecticut and New York Winfield Street Coffee locations participating, Winfield will donate 10,000 meals by year's end to help households struggling through the economic hardship caused by the pandemic. For every guest check of $20.00 or higher, Winfield donates one $5.77 meal to a household impacted by COVID-19. To date, 4,819 meals have been donated, benefiting 294 families! Winfield is located in the heart of Downtown within the Ferguson Library at 96 Broad Street, so it is easy to stop in and contribute. Breno Donatti, local owner and Downtown resident is responsible for bringing the “Giving Back” program to life. He explains, “Part of the core of the company I founded is to establish ourselves in the community and provide value to the residents. We cannot just be a spectator and go about our business as usual. In the current 2020 scenario, the people affected by COVID go beyond the ones in the hospital, but all of those who lost jobs, assist and loved ones. We decided to leverage the resources we have by not only donating meals, but many of our vendors, local corporations and customers felt compelled to donate as well."
