What does it mean to be a Beneficiary at Richwood Coffee?

When selecting a beneficiary, we are looking for partners to help us strengthen and support the communities we both serve.  When Richwood Coffee was created the vision was to connect community and purpose.  Richwood Bank’s 150+ years of success was built on dedication to our communities. When we all grow, we all win!  We have raised over $1 million in donations since opening our first coffee shop in 2015.

  • Beneficiaries must be a nonprofit 501c3 organization.
  • Beneficiaries must bank with Richwood Bank.
  • Whether full-time or quarterly status, beneficiaries have expectation to increase community participation and successfully increase your donations above the minimum requirement of $300 per quarter. This ensures all beneficiaries are actively involved in the program and helps keep our waitlist moving.

Our coffee shops are located in our Richwood, Marysville, Delaware, Bellefontaine, Springfield, and Plain City branches.

How does the coffee shop process work… for the public?

We like to say, “You can BANK on getting a good cup of coffee”…even if you’re not a Richwood Bank customer. Anyone can donate to our nonprofit beneficiaries and receive thank you cups in return.  It’s as easy as 1…2…3

  1. A person visits one of our customer specialists at any of our coffee shop locations inside Richwood Bank and decides how much they’d like to donate to one of our community beneficiaries.
  2. In return, they receive “thank you” cups that match their donation dollars.
  3. They head over to the Richwood Coffee order window and choose a hot or cold drink of their choice.

How does the coffee shop process work…for our beneficiaries?

We’re committed to promoting your organization through our coffee shops, website, social media, and other marketing efforts to help introduce your mission to our customers.

We encourage our beneficiaries to do the same. When you share the partnership with your members, volunteers, donors, and supporters, you expand its reach and create more opportunities for people to give back.

The organizations that see the greatest success are those that actively promote the partnership by:

  • Sharing Richwood Coffee on social media
  • Including it in newsletters or emails
  • Mentioning it at meetings and events
  • Encouraging supporters to stop in for coffee

When we work together, we reach more people, increase awareness of your mission, and generate more support for the work you’re doing.

What happens to those proceeds?

100% of funds generated by donations to your specified organization will be transferred to your specified account. Your funds will be made available per terms of signed agreement.
