Grounds for a Cuppa
A ROVING coffee van is grinding beans for good on a community-focused mission.

The father and son venture that began two weeks ago, Grounds for Good by Compels Coffee, donates a portion of their sales to youth initiatives on the Coast.

Owner and pastor Murray Boyton said his journey as a pastor highlighted the “hurts and needs” of youth across different communities. 

He believed youths increasingly face the reality of domestive violence, bullying and poverty and he felt compelled to do something.

“We saw a lot of brokenness and broken families where kids were struggling and being bullied,” he said. “Regardless of the location, it’s the same challenge that people are facing.”

They currently donate 25 per cent of the profits per coffee cup to support chaplaincy in Coast schools. Murray said it equalled to about 80 cents in every cup.

“From anything that’s made with our coffee, we’ve made about $60-$70 thats gone back into the charity so far,” he said.

“If anything we are grounds for good – we are a profit for purpose – our motto is essentially people over profit.”

The roving van services at events, schools and corporate businesses from Kawana Waters to Beerwah and everything in between”.
