Luis is a staple of Tampa Coffee Culture.  If you've been to a shop in Tampa, chances are Luis either pulled the shot, trained the person who did, or had a hand in roasting the beans. Coffee in Tampa wouldn't be the same without Luis.\

When Luis isn't working at Alert or Eastlick, you can find him volunteering his time to help friends, working on hobbies such as photography or cooking, or getting fresh air riding his bike. (You know this man hasn't owned a car in years? You're welcome, environment).

Tragically, Luis broke his clavicle in half while riding his bike recently and requires urgent surgery.  Unfortunately, paying for the ER visit, x-rays, doctors, surgery, and rehab without insurance isn't cheap. That's where we come in. 

The Tampa Community is close-knit. We take care of our own, especially when they really need us.  The medical bills  are estimates to be in the 10's of thousands. That, in addition with lost wages from not being able to work fully for 4-5 months will be a large set back.

We're asking for donations of any amount to help offset the bills that are starting to come in. If we all offer a little, we'll be able to give Luis a lot. 

Luis has always been there for us, either with a great shot of 'spro or just a friendly smile and listening ear. It's time for us to be there for him.
