The Green Bay Area Public School District in partnership with Kavarna Coffeehouse launched the Cup of Kindness Project on May 15, 2026. This new initiative celebrates student creativity, community connection, and the power of simple acts of kindness.

Each disposable cup purchased will have a sleeve that was designed by a Green Bay Area Public School District student. The sleeves distributed on May 15, 2026, were designed by Fort Howard Elementary School and Green Bay West High School students. Kavarna generously provided the sleeves and materials, helping bring this collaborative project to life.

While the future coffeehouse days are in the works, be sure to stop by today, May 15 and get your Cup of Kindness! ☕💙
