RocketCup Coffee and United Way of Central New York Unite for Day of Caring with Community Mural Project

RocketCup Coffee is teaming up with United Way of Central New York for the 2025 Day of Caring, featuring a community mural project led by artist Tommy Lincoln. Volunteers will enjoy free coffee, and $1 from each Cuse® Coffee bag sold over the next 30 days will support United Way’s mission to uplift Central New York communities.

Syracuse, NY, August 06, 2025 --(PR.com)-- RocketCup Coffee is proud to announce its partnership with United Way of Central New York for this year’s Day of Caring, taking place on Thursday, August 7, 2025. As part of the event, RocketCup will be serving complimentary coffee and volunteering alongside the community for a hands-on mural painting project led by local Syracuse artist Tommy Lincoln.

In addition to volunteering, RocketCup Coffee will donate $1 from every bag of Cuse® Coffee sold over the next 30 days to support United Way of CNY’s mission.

“Our mission is to help revitalize communities. United Way plays a big part in making that possible,” said Tom Cullen, CEO of RocketCup Coffee.

Since 2023, Tommy Lincoln has volunteered his talents on United Way of CNY’s Day of Caring, donating the design and installation of a mural to a CNY based local nonprofit.
