Coffee company raising funds for firefighters

CHARLOTTE — Coffee lovers have a new way to support our local firefighters.

Fire Dept. Coffee, a veteran-owned company from Illinois, has created t-shirts and coffee labeled “Protecting Our Hive” to support the Charlotte Fire Department.

For each product sold, a portion of the sales will go to the Charlotte Reginal Fire Foundation.

So far, the effort has raised more than $4500.

CFD said the money will support programs for firefighters who are ill, mental health initiatives, and their canine program.

The effort will last through the end of September.
