Spreading Kindness on Global Pay It Forward Day
At Azura Credit Union, we believe small gestures can make a big impact. This Global Pay It Forward Day, our team set out to do just that—brighten someone’s day, one cup of coffee at a time.
Across our communities, Azura visited 10 local coffee shops with a simple message: "It’s on us!" Our staff spent $250 at each location to surprise patrons by covering their orders—with an additional $50 in tips to thank the hardworking baristas who keep things running behind the scenes.
From early morning commuters to friends catching up over lattes, the reactions were immediate—smiles, gratitude and a ripple effect of kindness that extended far beyond the counter. Moments like these remind us that community isn’t just where we live—it’s how we show up for one another.
Here’s where we paid it forward:
- The Steam Engine – Southwest Topeka
- Dialogue Coffee House – Southwest Topeka
- Beanheads Coffee – North Topeka
- Classic Bean – Downtown Topeka
- Milk & Honey Coffee Co. – Southeast Topeka
- Sparrow Coffee Co. – Northwest Topeka
- Sweet Tee's Coffee Shop - Olathe
- Maps Coffee & Chocolate - Lenexa
- Filling Station Coffee - Mission
- Corner Market - Ottawa
While the coffee may be gone, the spirit of giving continues. Whether it’s buying the next cup, lending a helping hand, or simply sharing a smile, we’re proud to be part of a community that pays it forward.
