Help Me Create a Coffee Van That Empowers Others (and Me)
Donation protected
Hi, I’m Jade—and I’m building Perk Up, a mobile coffee van that’s about way more than just great coffee.
Perk Up is a space where people with learning disabilities can build confidence, get real work experience, and feel included in their community. I’ve seen how powerful it is when someone feels proud of themselves—and I want to create a place that brews not just coffee, but courage and connection.
This dream is really personal to me. I’m neurodivergent (likely ADHD/autistic), and I know what it’s like to feel like you don’t fit into the box that the world expects. But I also know that with the right support, people can shine. And that’s what Perk Up is all about—helping people shine in their own way, one cup at a time.
Right now, I’m starting from scratch—no van, no fancy setup, just a big dream and a lot of determination. I’m asking for help to get this project off the ground. Your donation will go toward:
Buying a small secondhand coffee van or trailer
Coffee equipment (machine, grinder, cups, etc.)
Supplies and setup costs
Licenses, training, and startup support for those we’ll help
If you can give, share, or just cheer me on—I appreciate it more than you know. Together, we can make Perk Up something beautiful.
Thank you so much for believing in this idea—and in me.
