Habitat for Humanity Lima Area is thrilled to be joined by Vibe Coffeehouse & Café, The Meeting Place on Market, and Sara’s Sweets for an afternoon of coffee and dessert tastings during our Second Annual Support Drive.
Dr. Carlton McLellan owner of Vibe, Jennifer Brogee owner of The Meeting Place, and Sara Anderson, owner of Sara’s Sweets will be talking about each coffee and dessert they bring as you have the opportunity to compare coffees and pair desserts while recording tasting notes. You will learn about the different tasting notes between roasts as well as varied techniques to make coffee while you watch them demonstrate preparing the coffee for you. You will also learn about the bakery selections Sara has chosen to pair with each coffee. She will also be bringing two unique items not sold in her bakery.
Habitat for Humanity is excited to share our vision for the upcoming year during this event as we celebrate the local coffee and bakery culture that continues to grow here in Lima.
You won’t want to miss this unique event on May 18th from 2-4 at the City Club in Veterans Memorial Civic and Convention Center. Tickets are $35 each or two for $60, because of the unique nature of this event, seats will be limited to 100.

In Support of Habitat for Humanity Lima Area
Founded in 1991 in Allen County in West Central Ohio, Habitat for Humanity-Lima Area, Inc. has built 55 houses in the area as of 2019. The Lima Area affiliate also helps to build houses internationally. It gives 10% of its unrestricted income toward international Habitat for Humanity work. This tithe is based on the Biblical principle of being generous toward others and giving back a portion of the gifts entrusted to us. For every dollar tithed from the Lima Area Habitat for Humanity, 50% goes to Guatemala and 50% goes to Africa/Middle East. From 1992-2019, the Lima Area Habitat has given approximately $275,000 in tithe money, which has impacted over 100 international families.
In 2008 the affiliate took another significant step in leasing a building and opening a ReStore on E. Wayne Street in downtown Lima. In 2012 the Lima Affiliate moved both the ReStore and Habitat offices to 550 W. Elm Street. The building also houses a warehouse for construction and construction materials used in the house building work.
The affiliate is deeply grateful for the untold numbers of persons who have supported its housing ministry—construction and ReStore volunteers, donors, board and committee members and many others who have offered encouragement, counsel and prayers. With the assistance of many people, churches and businesses, individuals and families have achieved the dream of home ownership - likely impossible without the assistance of Habitat!
