our mission

Our mission is to make a positive impact in our community by serving our customers specialty coffee and working with local organizations to promote foster care and adoption.

It is important to us at Traverse Coffee Co to be involved in our community and give back in an impactful way. Something that has always been near to our hearts is foster care and adoption. There are nearly 2,000 children in foster care in the state of Maine, 91% of whom have entered the system due to neglect. In nearly half of these cases, children are eventually reunited with their families, but need a loving and safe place to call home in the mean time. In many of the remaining cases, about 34-37%, children are waiting for adoption by a forever family. Traverse Coffee Co is dedicated to partnering with local charities to promote foster care and adoption by donating 5 percent of profits.

We invite you to drop by for a latte and a chat or grab a flat white for the road and experience the warm, friendly environment of our establishment. It is our hope that with every delicious sip of coffee that you feel the value of the difference that you’re helping to make in the lives of others.
