ABOUT.
Cup of Sugar co. is a company with a focus on “teatime” products ranging from sugar, honey and jams to syrup, chutney and, of course, tea! Through these products, Cup of Sugar co. hopes to bring together each community and change the world all at the same time. To do that, we start with the inspiration of the products. With each product comes the story behind various organizations, for research and philanthropy, or social movements to help spread awareness of these companies and their missions. Cup of Sugar co. wants to use its products, platform, and passion to help donate to organizations all around the world and we need your help to do it! Now, here comes the fun – the creation of the products. Cup of Sugar co. values all-natural, responsibly sourced goods to craft our specially curated list of offerings. In our kitchen, we choose what we use from a selection of items that have been nurtured and grown by hand, close to home. By doing so, we are able to create a family-oriented presence in our Cup of Sugar co.mmunity, and in extension, bring that same family feel to your neighborhood anywhere in the world. Although it will take some growth to “take over the world” with the brick-and-mortar shop(s) we hope to be, our website is the catalyst into something much bigger, and you’re a primal part of this (tea) party!
OUR MISSION.
The mission of Cup of Sugar co. is quite simple – it's to go back to basics in the most fundamental sense; back to when you were able to ask a neighbor to “borrow a cup of sugar” or back to when sugar was in its purest, most natural form. Our company is working to promote and encourage the definition of community, starting with you, which is the most natural part of our products. The message is spread by those who share the same wish for the world to be healthier and more whole. If one person makes the conscious effort to force a change, then a ripple effect will always follow. Our mission is to mend the individualistic gap that has been steadily dividing our society over the last few decades so that we can create a better tomorrow. We plan to do this through our variety of pure products that are locally-sourced throughout our CoSco.mmunity, and shared with you all through your communities.
FOUNDER’S PROMISE.
I, Ayanna Chase, absolutely promise to stand by the inspiration this company was built on and defend the world we live in as an advocate for those who may not have a big enough platform to be heard. I want to echo the messages being sent all over the world and have the followers of this company be that long-awaited response of aid – thanks to the help of the community I’ve known, I’ve watched grow and, now, that I hope to create. My promise is for every product purchased, a sample cup of that same product will be provided to the customer to be given to someone else. This is to serve as a means of spreading the message of Cup of Sugar co. AND as a way to close the gap of separation between each other. A portion of the purchase for each product (or merchandise item) will go directly to the organization, or social movement, it supports as a channel of donations through our company. The breakdown for donations is as follows: $1 donated per $5 product or item, $2 donated per $10 product or item and $3 donated per $15 product or item. This also serves as a platform to promote the story & mission of each organization as we proudly raise them up and fight for the world we love!
I have no doubt I will stand proudly on this promise. Will you stand with me, too?
Much love to you,
ATC.

Please understand that the Founder's Promise only accounts for every 'product' purchased that can be physically measured out to fill a sample cup, meaning that it does NOT apply to merchandise. Thank you!
