EZRE Comes to Florida - Launch Party at Happy Brew!!!
About this Event
EZRE, a veteran-owned company, is launching in Florida and celebrating with its first partner, Happy Brew, the nonprofit coffee shop in San Marco that provides employment, job training, and leadership opportunities for adults with intellectual and developmental differences.
Paper receipts don't work for blind and low-vision shoppers. EZRE fixes that. Pay with your card exactly as you do today, and a clean, fully itemized receipt arrives on your phone without any extra steps like taking a picture or scanning a QR code.
EZRE was founded by the first blind graduate of the United States Naval Academy, Class of 2023. The app went live on the App Store about a month ago. Happy Brew is where it comes to Florida.
Starting August 21, every purchase at Happy Brew can generate an accessible EZRE receipt. Come see it work.
First 100 coffees are on us. Download EZRE, link your card, and buy a coffee at the Happy Brew counter. You'll get an itemized receipt on your phone, and we'll cover the cost. Our team will be there all day to help you get set up — bring the physical card you want to link.
Throughout the day
Live head-to-head demos, remarks from Happy Brew and EZRE, fun games and music, and time to meet the Happy Brew crew. Full schedule in the agenda below.
A space built for everyone
Happy Brew was designed to exceed ADA standards. The café has no-step entry with wide automatic doors, ample wheelchair-accessible parking, tables at multiple heights, braille signage, a sensory room, and restrooms with automatic doors and an adult-sized changing table. There's an indoor café, a covered patio, and an outdoor lawn and stage.
Their crew — adults with intellectual and developmental differences — is who makes the place run.
Whether you're blind or low-vision, Deaf or hard of hearing, a wheelchair user, a person with special needs, or someone who loves one, you belong at this one.
