Every community has an ice cream store,but not all of them have a mission.When Charles Foreman opened his store,Everyday Sundae,he had a goal in mind, "My objective is to make a positive impact in my community by treating people like family and remembering them," he said.
With his business slogan,"A place for community," Foreman's store has quickly gained a devoted following.Customers visit to enjoy their favorite flavors;artwork and cards from them decorate the walls;and some purchase their paper napkins there to support the store.Foreman has also organized events like storybook readings accompanied by sweet treats for children.What truly sets this business apart is the free ice cream that Foreman generously gives out.
"You know when they come in,you can see it.It was natural to notice some of the kids have it and others don't.So I'm going to sponsor them." Foreman said as he talked about how he can tell when a visitor wants a treat they can't afford."I just want to do some positive things.I believe my community is missing a family-friendly ice cream shop."
One day,Nicole Harkin,one of his regular customers,noticed Foreman give a free ice cream to children without money.For Foreman,this was a constant gesture that had just gone unnoticed,but Harkin reacted with surprise.She came back and handed him an envelope containing 100 dollars.Foreman was so touched by Harkin's gift that he posted it on Instagram.Foreman and Harkin's kind behaviors also moved other customers to cover Foreman's free ice creams for people they didn't know.Foreman's ice cream fund has received many donations since then.
"When you see people doing their best,you want to do your best," Foreman said. "Everything is contagious,whether you do something negative or positive.We're supposed to do all we can to help each other."
