"YouthFriends, a mentoring program for schoolkids, was picked as one of the Ten Cup’s charities for this quarter.

Each fiscal quarter, the Ten Cup chooses 10 charities that will share 10 percent of the coffee shop’s profits. Also, the business at 651 E. 59th St. serves as a distribution point for the nonprofits’ brochures and business cards.

“I think the concept is really exciting,” Adkins said. “The civic and business example they are setting is impressive.”"
