Trending
WHEELING -- A new business and financial support for a community organization are about to brew in Woodsdale.
7 Brew, a drive-thru coffee location at 841 National Road, will host a Family and Friends fundraising weekend beginning Friday, Sept. 11, through Sept. 13 to benefit Helping Heroes. Guests can receive a free small drink during designated hours and will have the opportunity to make an optional donation to the organization.
Helping Heroes supports homeless and near-homeless veterans as they work toward self-sufficiency and reintegration into the community. Its programs include transitional housing, supportive case management, homelessness prevention and rapid rehousing services for veterans across five counties.
Hours for the Family and Friends fundraising weekend are 7 to 10 a.m. Friday; 9 a.m. to noon and 3 to 6 p.m. Saturday; and 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday.
A grand opening is set for Monday, Sept. 14. Free small drinks will be available during community hours from 9 to 10 a.m., noon to 1 p.m. and 5 to 6 p.m.
Then, on Saturday, Sept. 19, 7 Brew will have a "Swag Day." Customers will receive a free 7 Brew T-shirt with every large drink purchased, while supplies last.
Regular operating hours for 7 Brew are Sunday through Thursday, 5:30 a.m. to 10 p.m., and Friday and Saturday, 5:30 a.m. to 11 p.m.
On Thursday, aspiring baristas gathered for their first training session at the Woodsdale location.
They were learning how to make all the drinks available and getting a chance to taste them. As the new 7 Brew is the first in the area, it was the first chance for many to sample the beverages on the menu.
In addition to hot coffee, 7 Brew offers teas, smoothies and shakes, as well as cold coffees and energy drinks.
The coffee stand, locally operated by Who Brew LLC, is expected to employ approximately 100 local team members. Hiring information can be found at 7brewteam.7brewcareers.com/jobs/.
