Hard Ground Cafe – An impactful initiative by Dublin Charity
Hard Ground Cafe – In a city saturated with coffee options, it’s not every day that a new café makes waves for more than just its brew. Dublin’s latest addition, Hard Ground Cafe, is rewriting the narrative of coffee culture by taking a bold step towards social change.
With price points that are unheard of in this climate, Hard Ground Cafe isn’t just about serving up expertly crafted coffees—it’s about serving the community. The café, an initiative of Mendicity, Dublin’s oldest working charity, is on a mission to disrupt the cycle of homelessness.
What sets Hard Ground apart is its commitment to providing work and training opportunities for people experiencing homelessness. The in-house baristas, who skillfully pour your morning cup, are individuals undergoing training provided by JJ Darboven, ensuring not only a great cup of coffee but also a chance for those facing adversity to gain valuable skills.
The reasonably priced coffee, at just €2.75, is an investment in the well-being of the community. All proceeds from every cup go directly towards Mendicity’s essential services—healthcare, food, advocacy, and shelter.
It is a beacon of hope and assistance, offering not just immediate relief but also pathways to employment through CV preparation, job search, and training. Your purchase goes beyond the caffeine fix, contributing to a cause that transcends the walls of the café. Located at 9 Island St, Usher’s Island, Hard Ground is not just a café; it’s a community hub brewing change, one cup at a time.
