☕ A cup of coffee. A moment of connection.

At our HCCOA senior centers, morning coffee brings friends together to catch up, share a laugh, and start the day feeling welcome. A simple cup can mean so much when it comes with friendship and conversation.

Want to help us keep those moments brewing? We welcome donations of unopened bags or cans of ground coffee, regular or decaf, for our 10 senior centers. Next time you’re grocery shopping, consider picking up an extra one for your senior neighbors!
