Columbia-Montour Quarterly Vol. 11: January-March 2024

giving back to the community was important to Bason Coffee at the start of the company which helped to fuel the area of fundrais- ing. This new space would help that mission grow. Over the years, Bason Coffee has helped hundreds of organizations from all over the country raise funds totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars. During the 2020 pandemic, Bason Coffee saw the need for a drive-thru coffee shop. A place for people to get their daily cof- fee while maintaining social distancing. The Happy Mug Drive Thru was soon born in the old FNB Bank building near Weis Markets in Danville. Happy Mug continues today offering coffee, tea, espres- so-based drinks, refreshers, and some food for those needing a quick pick-me-up while on their travels. cont. on next page...
