Culligan of West Warwick’s Connection to the Local Community

At Culligan of West Warwick, we believe in supporting our local community. One business that has captured our hearts is Red, White & Brew Coffeehouse, owned by Michael, a remarkable young man who has a vision that extends beyond serving coffee.

Michael is not only a business owner, but also an inspiring leader in our community. Our connection to him goes beyond business– General Manager of the West Warwick dealership, Mike Gervais, is the Special Olympics coach for the Rhody Rangers, a team Michael is proudly part of.

After more than two years at his former location, rising rental fees forced Michael to close his previous coffee shop. However, with determination and the support of his family and community, he reopened in Warwick, Rhode Island, this past June.

This wasn’t just about reviving a coffeehouse; it’s about creating opportunities. Michael’s mission includes giving opportunities to those with special needs through employment, as well as by offering the coffeehouse as a free meeting space and classroom to a large organization that supports individuals with intellectual disabilities.

When we learned about Michael’s plans to re-open Red White & Brew Coffeehouse and expand his mission, we knew that our team at Culligan of West Warwick had to get involved. His vision of creating opportunities for individuals with special needs perfectly aligns with our values of supporting and making a positive impact in our local community.

As part of this partnership, Culligan has donated a Hot/Cold Water Dispenser and Cooler to Red White & Brew Coffeehouse. This energy-efficient, low-maintenance dispenser delivers cleaner, tastier water with the convenience of a bottom-load design, eliminating the hassle of lifting heavy bottles. With its compact size and options for hot, cold, or room-temperature water at the touch of a button, it’s a perfect fit for the coffeehouse’s needs.

Helping others is central to what we do at Culligan. Supporting Michael and his business is a proud moment for our team, and it underscores our commitment to fostering growth and opportunity in our community.

If you’re in Warwick, we encourage you to visit Red White & Brew Coffeehouse, grab a cup of coffee, and join us in supporting a local business that is truly making a difference.
