ROANOKE, Va. – A new coffee shop in the Star City is creating opportunities one cup at a time.
Chris’s Coffee and Custard held a ribbon ceremony Saturday to celebrate its grand opening.
Chris and his mom Beth have worked over the years to turn it into a cafe with a purpose.
She created the business to employ and train people with special abilities.
Her vision is to have a place where they can feel comfortable and feel like part of the community.
“This is important to me because I want to work for my friends, my family and my soccer team... That’s my dream job I love,” said Chris.
Chris says anyone who wants to start their own business just needs to have courage to make it happen.
