B3 is a nonprofit that provides social and vocational opportunities for people of all abilities. Using the way coffee brings people together, we aim to facilitate community between people with and without disabilities and ultimately advance disability justice, allyship, and inclusion.






Being, Belonging, & Becoming (B3)
- BEING: we appreciate diverse ways of being & embrace the natural variation of what it means to be human. We recognize the inherent dignity and worth in being, and we honor individual differences.
- BELONGING: we strive to create spaces where everyone belongs. Belonging, to us, means people of all abilities are fully engaged in communities of choice, and moreover, recognized as valued members.
- BECOMING: we believe in becoming better together, through inviting diversity to enrich our lives, workplaces, and communities. One cup at a time, we strive to influence change toward a more inclusive and equitable world.




COMMUNITY IN ACTION

This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to support B3 Coffee.
It`s so much more than coffee– we are cultivating a thriving community between people with and without disabilities.
The testimonies of our members reflect our mission in action:
"At B3, I can be myself. For the first time, I feel like I have a place in my community"– B3 member
"This internship was an experience of growth in allyship, self-advocacy, and workplace belonging. I so appreciate the detailed trainings and I know I have grown significantly in my allyship journey thanks to getting involved with B3."– B3 member and ally
"Because of B3, I have a social life."– B3 member
All donations, big, small, and recurring– are critical to advancing B3`s impact. We are so grateful for our generous community of supporters!
