Thanks Blue State!

Did you know that Blue State Coffee donates 2% of its profits to local non-profits?  This quarter, Blue State has chosen to support YIA by selecting us as one of the charities!  Stop by Blue State Coffee's second location, inside the Brown University Bookstore at 244 Thayer Street in Providence.  When you order a drink, use your token to vote for YIA.  The organization with the greatest number of votes receives a greater share of the total donated by Blue State.  Thanks to Blue State for their continued support!
