Banner Year Coffee Expands NIL Support with Three New Collectives
Boston, MA – January 27 2025 – Banner Year Coffee, a provider of high-quality, delicious coffee that supports student athletes through NIL Collectives, today announces the expansion of its NIL support program to include three new university collectives: Micconope 1851 (supporting Florida State University athletes), The Thunder Trust (supporting Marshall University athletes), and Light The Tower (supporting University of North Texas athletes).
We are thrilled to partner with these outstanding NIL Collectives and the student athletes that they support. Supporting student athletes is a core value at Banner Year Coffee, and we believe in the power of NIL to empower these young individuals both on and off the field.
10% of every bag of Banner Year Coffee grounds purchased will directly benefit these collectives, enabling them to provide valuable resources and opportunities to their student-athletes.
To celebrate this exciting expansion, Banner Year Coffee is doubling its contribution to 20% of every purchase through February 10th. This limited-time offer provides an even greater opportunity for coffee lovers to make a meaningful impact on the lives of these student-athletes.
Banner Year Coffee now supports six NIL Collectives through our delicious ground coffee roasts: Storrs Central, Friends of the Heights, Trojans Together, Micconope 1851, The Thunder Trust and Light The Tower.
