Olivia has always had a heart to serve others. She dreamed of helping children in need and being someone who shows up for her community. It makes perfect sense that one of her favorite people to read about is Martin Luther King Jr., someone who believed in serving others and creating change.

To support her dream, we got Olivia a 3D printer so she could make toys to sell and give back where we saw needs in our community. We started showing up at local markets, raising money and meeting incredible people along the way.

Then something unexpected happened. I was invited to an event called The Founder Con and was pulled up on stage and asked what I needed help with. Honestly, I did not have a clear answer. I simply shared that my daughter had a dream of building something that could bring a community together to serve children who needed support.

That moment changed everything.

Ivan, an incredible human, approached us and offered Olivia a spot in his junior entrepreneur coffee program. Olivia started training and even worked in his coffee shop learning the craft.

Soon after, we partnered with her cousin Ryley Music Racing and together we raised enough to provide Christmas for 27 children. Each child received a jacket, shoes, and three toys to open on Christmas morning.

But we quickly realized something important.

Helping children should not only happen at Christmas.

So we kept building. We worked with our roaster, experimented with flavors, and created products that pair beautifully with coffee including our sugar free syrups that can be used in coffee, yogurt, waffles, and more.

That is how Cranky Sisters Coffee was born.

A veteran owned, family run business built on gratitude and purpose. My husband is a Purple Heart recipient, and when our family needed help, our community showed up for us in powerful ways.

Now this is our way of paying it forward.

Every cup is about more than coffee. It is about serving others and spreading the kind of love and kindness the world needs more of. ☕️💛
