Scooter’s Coffee adds Courage Cookies, Courage Quenchers to October menu

To help fund the lifesaving work in the research and treatment of breast cancer, which the National Cancer Institute estimates about 13 percent of women will be diagnosed with in their lifetime, Scooter’s Coffee will donate 20 percent of sales of two Courage-themed products to The Pink Agenda, a nonprofit committed to raising money for breast cancer research and care, as well as awareness of the disease among young professionals.

“So many of us have been impacted by breast cancer ourselves or in someone we love. The Courage of breast cancer patients and the Love shown by those rallying behind them is inspiring,” says Becky Vinton Jeanette, executive director of community affairs at Scooter’s Coffee. “Guided by our Core Values of Courage and Love, we’re entering the fifth consecutive year of partnership with The Pink Agenda to one day find a cure and put an end to this devastating disease.”

Since 2020, Scooter’s Coffee has donated nearly $676,000 to The Pink Agenda and sold more than 1 million Courage Cookies to support significant advances in breast cancer research.

“Through our ongoing partnership with Scooter’s Coffee and the generosity of its customers, employees and franchise owners, The Pink Agenda can continue funding life-changing research and care needed to save lives with the goal of one day making breast cancer history,” says Serra Eken, managing director for The Pink Agenda. “We remain committed to raising awareness of this disease, especially among young professionals. It’s important to engage today’s generation to find tomorrow’s cure.”

Throughout the month of October, customers can support this critical research by purchasing a Courage Cookie, a new Courage Quencher or by adding a donation to their order. 

The Courage Cookie ($2.95 each or 2 for $5.50) is a sugar cookie baked fresh and topped with a savory cream cheese frosting and pink sprinkles. The Courage Quencher ($4.95 for a small) is a light pink iced drink featuring the thirst-quenching flavors of strawberry and lime paired with our smooth coconut milk and topped with freeze-dried blueberries.

These menu items and the opportunity to donate directly to The Pink Agenda will only be available at Scooter’s Coffee locations until Thursday,October 31.

The Pink Agenda funds four major research projects through its strategic partnership with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF). These projects aim to: improve survivorship and treatment approaches; eliminate disparities in access to care in ethnically diverse communities; investigate risk factors to inform preventative strategies; and understand genetic risks.
