Third Horse Coffee

Help Create Meaningful Employment Opportunities for Adults with Disabilities

What if a simple cup of coffee could change someone’s future?

Third Horse Coffee exists to create meaningful employment for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities—individuals who are ready and able to work, but too often overlooked.

During Delco Gives, every donation will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $10,000 — doubling your impact.

For us, this mission is personal.

We are Mark and Beth Kessler, parents of six children, including our son Josiah, who has an intellectual disability. As he approached adulthood, we began searching for what his future could look like. What we found was discouraging—nearly 80% of adults with intellectual disabilities are unemployed.

Not because they lack ability. Because opportunities are limited.

We knew there had to be a better way.

What We’ve Built So Far

Since launching in 2022, we’ve:

• Generated nearly $130,000 in coffee and merchandise sales
• Supplied coffee to churches, organizations, and community partners
• Supported fundraising efforts for schools and nonprofits
• Created hands-on work opportunities through fulfillment, deliveries, and events

People care about this mission—and they support it.

What’s Next

We are working to open our first coffee shop—a place where adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities can:

• Build skills and confidence
• Experience meaningful work
• Be part of a supportive community

With your help, this next step can become a reality.

Third Horse Coffee is about more than coffee.

It’s about creating a future where people like Josiah are given the opportunity to work, to be known, and to thrive.

Thank you for being part of this.

Together, we are brewing community—one cup at a time.
