Four Jacksonville-based companies and one nonprofit came together to raise funds to help change lives of human-trafficking victims with a special event at Tabula Rasa Brewing Company Jan. 30.

Banning together to do good were Rethreaded, FreshJax, Tabula Rasa, Craft Cuisine and Amelia Toffee. Guests were treated to a bowl of specialty crafted chili, which included FreshJax Sunrise Coffee Rub, a sample of the new Rethreaded Irish Beer Toffee, and a pint Rethreaded coffee-infused beer by Tabula Rasa called Scarlet Joe, which is made to include ingredients handcrafted by survivors of human trafficking.

Attendees were the first to try the newest Rethreaded collaboration, Sunrise Cowgirl’s Coffee Rub, a coffee-infused chili rub spice made by FreshJax that includes ingredients made by Rethreaded. All food items were handcrafted to include ingredients made by human trafficking survivors.

The purpose of the event was to raise money and awareness for Rethreaded and its mission, to “renew hope and reignite dreams for survivors of human trafficking through business.”
