So how much is 449,000 ounces of tea? Well, enough to fill up an 18-wheeler. And that’s how much we donated to Feed the Children who was looking for food and supplies for Haiti.
Closer to home as Danny mentioned Monday, we were able to set up a table in front of Dominican Joe Coffee Shop along-side the Peace Peddler herself, Jamie Josephs to offer people one of our new 16 oz cans in exchange for a donation of ANY size! The Haiti Disaster Relief Fundraiser was put on by the kind folks at Markarios. Danny and April had the booth set up from before 11AM until around 3:30 and in that amount of time we raised around $350! That’s a lot of cans, I tell you what!

Check out the footage from KXAN (our local NBC affiliate) and Fox 7 News! I think that the people of Austin really came out to show their support and I hope that in 6 months when this issue seems like a distant memory, that we are still sharing much-needed aide with the people of Haiti.
