WAKEFIELD — INSpire Café, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals with diverse abilities is set to open this fall at the corner of Main Street and Richardson Avenue. To help raise funds for this amazing cause, Janice Berner will be running the DC Marine Corps Marathon with all proceeds going towards the café’s opening.

INSpire Café located near The Farmland Grocery in Wakefield is more than just a coffee shop. Its mission is to create an inclusive workforce where people of all abilities can contribute and thrive. The café aims to foster a community where differences are celebrated and everyone is given the chance to succeed.

To support this initiative, donations of any size are greatly appreciated and are tax-deductible. Every contribution will go directly towards making INSpire Café a reality and providing valuable opportunities for the community. Please use classy.org/campaign/janice-berner/c602425 to donate.

Thank you for your generous support in helping INSpire Café achieve its vision of inclusion and empowerment for all. We are looking forward to seeing you all at the grand opening to be announced soon.
