Mugg & Bean’s pink cappuccinos raise breast cancer awareness

For most women, one of life’s most treasured treats is a heart-to-heart with a BF (best friend) over a delicious cup of coffee.

During October, coffee lovers who pop in to a Mugg & Bean coffee shop will be in for a ‘pink’ surprise.  Throughout the month, Mugg & Bean stores nationwide will be serving ‘pink’ cappuccinos and biscuits in support of breast cancer awareness and education.

Known as the ‘Pink Mugg Shot’, the initiative is a partnership between Novartis Oncology and Mugg & Bean coffee shops. These organisations joined forces on the initiative in a bid to find a novel but meaningful way of encouraging South Africans to think about breast cancer during the course of their daily business.

Look out for the special table talkers which contain information on breast cancer and an SMS number: 38584 that enables patrons wishing to indicate their support for the fight against the disease to make a R10 donation to the Breast Health Foundation (BHF). Just imagine the tremendous impact if every Mugg & Bean patron were to commit to a R10 donation to the BHF!
