What Are Holiday Hot Cups?
Holiday Hot Cups are simple paper coffee cups that kids, families, groups and couples decorate for the holidays and fill with hot cocoa packets. The project is designed to help spread joy and cheer to people experiencing homelessness during the cold weather holiday season. They warm hands, bodies and hearts.
