Clover Coffee
How Did Clover Coffee Get Its Name?
To many, the four-leaf clover is a symbol of good luck, hope, and prosperity. To us, the four-leaf clover signifies a difference that is special. Grown in the same field, under the same sun, some clovers have an extra leaf. It does not make the clover better or worse, just different.
It is that celebration of difference that gives all of us at Clover Coffee, our why.
Our Why
Our paths towards starting Clover Coffee looked a little different for each of us. However, one thing we all had in common was our passion and love for either raising our own children with different abilities or working with this special group in our day to day jobs.
Throughout our experiences, we became aware of the need for meaningful employment within this population that was not being addressed with traditional work settings. A concerning 80% of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities are unemployed. Providing employment to these individuals not only offers opportunity for financial gain and independence, but it is also a way for them to develop their identity and purpose.
At Clover Coffee, our goal is to create an inclusive employment opportunity where our employees develop a sense of purpose and value, and where their potential can be met.
We want our employees and their ABILITIES to be celebrated, not just tolerated.
Our Mission
At Clover Coffee, our mission is to bring social awareness and acceptance to the community while providing individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities meaningful and purposeful employment.
Clover Coffee provides an inclusive environment that will foster positive social interactions for our employees within the community, as well as a sense of personal pride.
