Human Bean donating Friday profits to Kootenai Cancer Foundation

The Human Bean, a coffee drive-through in Coeur d’Alene, is donating all its sales profit received Friday, Oct. 20, to support cancer patients in Kootenai County.

The charitable event called Coffee for a Cure is in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Owner Alicia Addy is expecting this year’s donation amount to be much greater than in previous years. Last year, the Human Bean donated $1,050 to the Kootenai Cancer Foundation.

“I think it’s a great, great cause, and people love it. To do little things like this in the community goes far,” Addy said. We just try to be big in our community, because, well, it’s where we’re at.”

The Human Bean, located at 380 E. Neider Ave., is open from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. and serves coffees, teas, smoothies, protein and energy drinks and baked goods.
