The coffee shops full of love and care

Drinking a cup of coffee each day has become an essential part of many people’s lives. Nowadays, numerous coffee shops in Taiwan ooze with character. However, some also brim with meaning and principles, aiming to inject some value into the lives of people with dementia and retired senior citizens by letting them serve customers. At the same time, this allows customers to enjoy a tasty cup of coffee brimming with the love of altruism.

Thankfully, reporting by citizen journalists is helping to raise awareness about the public value of such specialty coffee shops. Choosing to spend our money in such places will support vulnerable groups with positive energy and give customers an essential lesson in life.

以下為中文對照

每天喝杯咖啡已經成了不少人的生活習慣，台灣各地也有許多充滿特色的咖啡廳，但是有些不同意義與價值的咖啡館，因為當中服務的人，可能是失智者，可能是退休長輩，透過重新在咖啡館工作，讓他們的生命有了更多價值，而這杯消費者品嘗的咖啡，也充滿愛與關懷的公益價值。

透過公民記者的報導，讓我們感到特色咖啡館真的非常有意義。如果我們在生活中，也可以多多選擇這樣的地方去消費，相信可以不僅可以讓在這些地方工作的人，感受到正向力量，我們前去消費的人，也能從中學到生命的不同功課。
