Our Story

Housed within the Brisa Foundation, Sippers Café & Bakery is a non-profit organization dedicated to serving the community as a focal point for the transformative power of food as an agent of wellness, connection, and social change.

Currently a small custom order bakery, Sippers is working to expand into a mobile café to help bring The Brisa Foundation’s mission and vision into the community.  With the goal of one day transforming into a cozy cafe storefront where friends and families can enjoy sips of soups, exquisite meals, and delicious desserts, Sippers’ Café & Bakery will provide committed individuals with an opportunity to build social and occupational skills in a supportive and flexible work environment.  Sippers will offer employment opportunities for transitional aged youth (ages 15-23) who struggle with mental wellness, socioeconomic hardship, or those interested in careers in mental health.  The Sippers venue will be open to care providers across the spectrum to offer physical and emotional support for our staff. The treats will speak for themselves and with the support of our entire Sippers family, so will the young adults who learn and grow within our café. 

All funds raised at Sippers will be utilized to support the Brisa Foundation’s Brisa Bakes! Program.
