Although the temperature outside was chilly, hearts were warm inside as Human Bean Northern Colorado presented Santa Cops of Weld County with boxes full of toy donations and a check for $464.93 on Monday, Dec. 4.
The gifts were collected during Human Bean’s toy drive, held Nov. 9 through Dec. 3. Representatives from Santa Cops of Weld County served as guest baristas on Nov. 9 at the 6505 W. 29th Street location in Greeley to kick off the drive. On that day, 10 percent of sales were donated to Santa Cops of Weld County.
“This is one of our favorite give-back programs of the year,” says Krista Smith, assistant director of operations for Human Bean Northern Colorado. “We hope the toys and money raised alleviate some of the financial stress the holidays can bring to parents in need, and we hope they put smiles on the faces of their children.”
