Why We’re Grateful: A Note from our Founders

5 comments Nov 27, 2025

As we slow down for a moment this Thanksgiving, we can’t help but look back at the year thus far with full hearts. Building BLK & Bold has always been about more than coffee from the beginning. It’s been about community, connection, and creating something that pours back into the world. And this year reminded us just how powerful that mission becomes when people like you stand with us.

Every sip you’ve taken, every story you’ve shared, every time you’ve decided to include us in your day, you’ve pushed our mission forward. It’s because of you that we’ve had the opportunity to continue what we set out to do from day one: invest in the youth who inspire our future, showing what it looks like when a business leads with impact first.

We’re grateful for your trust. Grateful for your loyalty. Most of all, we’re grateful for the role you play in helping us turn a daily ritual into something bigger.

Thank you for being part of the BLK & Bold family. Thank you for fueling this mission. And thank you for believing in what coffee AND community can do.

— Rod & Pernell, Co-Founders of BLK & Bold
