Iconic Coffee Brand Remembers #42 as Former Company Executive
SUFFOLK, VA – The Jackie Robinson Foundation (JRF) and Chock full o’Nuts® coffee, in a partnership developed by IMG, today announced a collaboration to celebrate Jackie Robinson Day and his historic first home run over racial inequity.
Major League Baseball’s 2022 season marks the 75th anniversary of Jackie Robinson breaking the color barrier on April 15, 1947, when he competed for the Brooklyn Dodgers and became the first African-American player in Major League Baseball. To mark the occasion, Chock full o’Nuts® is launching three sizes of limited-edition Jackie Robinson Chock full o’Nuts® coffee cans in stores and online, hitting shelves in April 2022, with a portion of the proceeds from each purchase being donated to the JRF.
