Nowadays there are more and more coffee shops, and most of them are very photogenic. In order to attract customers, coffee shops go to great lengths, from decoration to menus to special services and exquisite details.

But even if it is so beautiful, not every coffee house can make money. In order to stay in business, even if the coffee shop can provide happiness and dreams for incoming customers, it is not a charity.

However, an Australian coffee shop has taken a different approach: they are doing charity, and 100% of their profits are used for the public good.

The "Internet celebrity" coffee shop unexpectedly doesn't make money.

In Sydney, Australia, there is a coffee shop called Portal, which runs at No. 1 Martin Place in the center of the city. Since it can be opened in CBD, this coffee shop must not be easy, and it is also an Internet celebrity on Instagram.

As a well-known coffee shop, Portal is decorated by award-winning Sydney architecture firm Adriano Pupilli Architects in a simple and distinctive style.

Food and beverage also made a lot of efforts, so we invited Michal Siudeja, a barista from Mecca, a famous coffee shop, to sit down. Super good-looking and delicious food and coffee are highly praised by people.

In addition, Portal offers barista training courses. Isn't it wonderful that there are three courses to choose from and provide a full range of equipment and one-on-one training?

With a comfortable environment and delicious food, you can learn how to make coffee if you are interested-so Portal seems to be no different from the online celebrity coffee shop we know. But the biggest difference in this coffee shop is that Portal donates all the profits from ordering meals and attending courses to charity.

Not for money, but for love to open a coffee shop

In our opinion, most of the things like "generating electricity with love" are doing "stupid" things. However, Portal's boss, Nicolas Degryse--, a 32-year-old graphic designer from France, is really so crazy.

By donating all the profits of the coffee shop to three charities, Eat Up, Green Fleet and Blue Dragon, Portal has provided 40224 sandwiches for famine children, compensated for 220248 kg of carbon emissions by planting trees, and donated 28648 children to school.

Besides, Portal is not the only charity coffee shop in Degryse. Surry Hills, one of the most popular areas in Sydney, has a "Folonomo" and a "Symbol" in North Sydney.

Although it is such a type of coffee shop, Degryse will not use "charity" as a selling point. What he insists on is to use service to win customers, and will not let customers do anything deliberately. As long as he chooses this store and spends money here, he is helping others. The decoration and production of Portal is working hard for this concept.

Even if you drink a cup of coffee, it is affecting society.

Like Degryse, there are probably many people who influence others and even society through coffee and coffee shops. Every cup of coffee in our hands may have one meaning or another.

If you had such a coffee shop that donated all its profits to charity, would you go there for a drink?
