MudLab/ For Here, Please

• Founder and Executive Director

  • Jun 2019 - Sep 2021

  MudLab/ For Here, Please is a cafe and non-profit; we are a community meeting place focused on sustainability. The ways in which we currently serve our neighborhood: We clean up trash at Lake Merritt. We encourage customers to remember their reusable mugs, bags, and containers and use a jar rental system to support the cafe’s zero-waste mission. We offer free food boxes each week to those in need via a partnership with Mandela Partners; we offer free coffee to those in need three times a week. We pay our baristas a living wage and raise awareness about the wage gap for service sector workers. We educate children and young adults about environmental stewardship via a Children’s Book on climate change and by going directly to schools to host workshops/trainings. We host zero-waste events and strive to create a zero-waste supply chain for the cafe and store. We sell used clothing, books, and other household items to encourage reuse. We partner with ReThink Disposable to help businesses come up with plastic-free solutions for food service. Show less
