premise: Gary and I have become big fans of Blind Dog Coffee , a local company -- with the by - now - mandatory organic , fair - trade beans -- started by a Reno man who went blind in middle age from the delayed effects of treatment for childhood cancer . He donates a portion of each sale to Angel Kiss , which gives childhood cancer patients and their families " immediate assistance and support for any expense or need related to treatment , " regardless of income . And as if that were n't enough , the coffee 's yummy . Support a family business ! Help kids in medical crisis ! Get a really good caffeine buzz ! Why might I prefer Blind Dog Coffee over other coffee companies ?
hypothesis: Because I agree with part its philosophies and practices about a lot of things , not just coffee .
