BLK & Bold, a black-owned coffee company headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa is doing it’s part to give back!
Rod Johnson and Pernell Cezar are the founders of BLK & Bold. The black business owners built their coffee company with a charitable hook: 5% of its proceeds go toward issues such as helping eradicate youth homelessness and addressing food insecurities.

“We really wanted to find a way to impact that vulnerable demographic by doing something we do every day, which is enjoying a cup of coffee or tea,” Cezar said. “The vision of the brand goes back to amplifying contribution and awareness of how for-profit can be this engine for domestic impact.”
BLK & Bold is available at Target and on Amazon.
