From the beginning we (Bald Guy and Mrs. Bald Guy) have always found a way to help young children. It isn’t like we are providing a ton of gourmet, organice coffee, but it is a START…kinda like the kid who was running up and down the beach tossing star fish back into the sea. One of his buddies yelled out “you can save them all”!. The young lad picked up one star fish and tossed it into the sea and yelled back: “but I can save this one”!

From our time working in urban areas both in Mexico, Rwanda, Peru, and Pittsburgh to rural areas like Boone, NC., we know that we can’t help everyone, but we like to think we can at least try. So, if you don’t have much to do, find $6.00 and go eat some pancakes and help raise some money that will go to a great cause!
