We’re fighting loneliness with friendliness

And coffee!

There’s something very special about Christmas, we can’t really put our finger on it (because it will get sticky). When you think about it, it’s not just the frostings and the warm drinks, lighting candles and be surrounded by your loved ones. Christmas is time for something more, something else. It’s the time of giving, in different ways. Wrapping presents for your family and friends. But also, to look around and meet a stranger’s smile. Say hi and spread love around you. Christmas is about sharing: love, gifts, and yumminess.

At Espresso House we love coffee. Not only because it tastes good, but because it has a strong social power and brings people together. We say CupTogether, and with that we commit ourselves to breaking down taboos and to fight loneliness – one cup at the time.

This year, we support MIELI Mental Health Finland in their continuous work to help those who are alone, stand out or feel that they don’t belong. Every day, MIELI ry works to promote mental health and prevent mental health issues. MIELI defends the universal right to a good mental health. No one should be alone with their challenges or thoughts.

With every cup of filter coffee sold throughout the month of December we will donate 10 cnt to MIELI Mental Health Finland.

And if you don’t drink coffee, don’t worry!
Social contact is proven to be the best way to fight loneliness. So, just look up and pay attention to the people around you. It makes all the difference in the world.
