Pay It Forward


There’s not a whole lot you can control in life, but you can still make a difference in the world. Egg Harbor Café is proud to provide you the opportunity to make a difference. Each of our locations has a “Pay it Forward” jar at the cash register, offering you a simple way to contribute to a good cause. Each month, we select a charity to which we donate the money collected in this jar. So whether you throw in a few pennies or a few dollars, it all adds up to make the world a better place. Have a suggestion for a charity you’d like to “Pay it Forward” to? We’d be happy to take it into consideration! Email your suggestions with the charity name, contact information, and a description of what they do to hamco@eggharborcafe.com!
