A CUSTOMER STORY ~ PAY IT FORWARD
A true story... an inspiration and an idea for you to try!
This story was submitted by Lori Donelson, owner of Keepsakes in Crown Pt. Indiana,
(and one of our good friends!) Read this and be inspired to do good!
Three years ago...one of my customers purchased a bag of coffee weekly, BUT she did not take the coffee with her. I was to place it in the next customers bag as a way of honoring her Aunt, whom she had lost to Breast Cancer. This began with the Pink Ribbon Coffee that Door County Coffee created!
This customer changed the flavors after awhile, but the concept remained the same. She continued to do this for approximately eight months, until she moved away. One day, the $2.25 sale was paid forward 11 times...they took the bag AND they purchased one as well. That was a special day and I could not wait to tell the young lady how her act of remembrance touched so many hearts especially mine!
Thank You Lori! You remind us that we can all make a difference!
