Campaign Update: Switching to Round-Up Giving (Effective Monday, December 15)

Beginning Monday, December 15, and continuing through January 31, we will move from the $ 1/$3/$5 donation buttons to a “Round Up for Stronger Kids” model.

This update makes it faster and easier for guests to participate and historically increases total donations by lowering friction and making giving feel more natural at checkout.


Talking Points for Baristas: How to Ask Guests to Round Up

These prompts help keep the ask friendly, quick, and impactful:

Easy + Simple

  • “Would you like to round up your total today to support our Strong Coffee, Stronger Kids campaign?”

  • “Your total is $X. Want to round up to the nearest dollar for kids in our community?”

When a guest asks what the campaign is:

  • “It’s a cause-driven campaign through Coffee for a Cause Foundation that supports programs helping kids in our communities.”

If a guest declines

  • “No worries at all—thank you! Just wanted to offer.”
