For the last 5 months I have been honored to be involved in a local project & it is really awesome to see it come to fruition. Yesterday was the Grand Opening of Gathering Grounds Coffee Shop. Located on the campus of the Rankin County School District Office (1220 Apple Park Place, Brandon, MS 39042), Gathering Grounds will serve as an employment training lab for students in RCSD's Special Education Transition Program. The shop will be run by students from across the district & will provide an avenue to assist students in developing social skills & becoming self-advocates for employment oppotunites.
A few months ago, we had a coffee tasting on the campus & developed a propriety Gathering Grounds Blend to be used at the shop. In addition brewed coffee & packaged baked goods, the front of coffee shop will feature original student artwork for sale. The intention of the school district to increase disability awareness & to spotlight the abilities, gifts and talents of all their students.
Your support is critical to the success of this shop. Each purchase you make is invested back into the school district to buy supplies & fund other projects to impact the lives of the students involved. We are super excited to be a part of this & ask that you support these amazing students. Be blessed.
