Hugh Jackman Opens Laughing Man Coffee Shop for Charity

New Yorkers can now feel a little better about their caffeine highs. Hugh Jackman has recently opened the Laughing Man Coffee & Tea shop in New York, and 100% of the proceeds go to charity. Yes, 100%. Not half. Not a quarter. Not—okay, you know what 100% means.
The shop will sell tea, coffee and chocolates in order to raise money for the less fortunate. One of the charities they plan to help out is the Harlem Village Academies. During the store’s grand opening, Hugh Jackman even gave out free drinks to young fans who stopped by.
The store is part of Jackman’s already-established Laughing Man organization/charity he founded with his friends Barry and David Steingard. The actor says he got the idea when he met a coffee farmer named Dukale during a trip to Ethiopia in 2009.
