👽 Hello Earth Friends,

The results of my intergalactic mission are in...

Together, you donated $8,630.07 during my matching campaign, helping generate a total of $17,260.14 for Purple Tree! 🚀

When I first arrived from a distant galaxy, I wasn't sure what to expect. But over the last few months, you've welcomed me, my family, and our very important scientific research projects with open arms. You followed our adventures, shared our posts, visited the MIND cafe, stopped by the Davis Farmers Market, told your friends about Purple Tree, and made donations of every size.

Most importantly, you helped support meaningful, community employment opportunities for people with disabilities in Sacramento and Davis.

My family and I have had so much fun getting to know all of you. We've loved hearing your stories, seeing your comments, and watching so many people rally around Purple Tree's mission. Thanks to your generosity, Purple Tree will be able to continue growing, creating opportunities for people with disabilities, and building a more inclusive community for years to come.

From the bottom of my little green heart, thank you for believing in Purple Tree. 💚

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have an important report to deliver back to my home planet: Earthlings are pretty amazing.

With extraordinary gratitude,
👽 The Little Green Alien

📡 Transmission to Arabica-9 📡

The Little Green Alien family is preparing their final Earth report before returning home on May 31. 👽

Current findings include:
✔ Humans run primarily on coffee
✔ Purple Tree oatmeal cookies are "universally effective"
✔ Inclusion and meaningful work make communities stronger

They plan to tell everyone back home about Purple Tree’s mission to create a welcoming, supportive work environment for people with disabilities and bring people with and without disabilities together through food, music, and art.

But before they leave Earth, they still hope to fully complete their $10,000 matching challenge. There is still about $2,000 left to be matched.

Help us send the family home with the best possible update to share across the galaxy 💜

🎩👽 The Brother has been studying Earth employment systems.

His conclusion? Too many workplaces underestimate what people with disabilities can accomplish when given the opportunity to succeed.

What impressed him about Purple Tree is that employees are not separated from the real work... they ARE the real work.

They are baking, serving customers, preparing drinks, and building transferable skills in a real business environment. That experience builds confidence and creates pathways toward long-term employment.

Also, according to him: “Every serious professional should own at least one Purple Tree mug.”

We are still unclear whether that is actual workforce advice or just aggressive merch promotion. 💜

Donations are still being matched/doubled until May 31!

👽🚀 The Little Green Alien family is getting ready to leave Earth.

The spaceship is being packed.
The navigation system is warming up.
Kitty has already climbed into at least three suitcases.

Before they return to Arabica-9 on May 31, the family has one big goal:
Help Purple Tree raise as much support as possible.

That means there is still time for your donation to be DOUBLED and help create more inclusive employment opportunities for people with disabilities in Sacramento and Davis.

The family says they plan to tell everyone back home that Purple Tree is proof that communities become stronger when people are given opportunity, support, and meaningful work.

Let’s help them leave Earth with good news to share 💜

We’re excited to share that Purple Tree will be participating in a new 3-part webinar series hosted by the California Employers Association in partnership with SETA : Demystifying Disabilities in the Workplace.

This free webinar series is designed to help employers better understand inclusive hiring, workplace accessibility, and the benefits of employing individuals with disabilities. Purple Tree will be joining an incredible group of partners — including the California Department of Rehabilitation, UC Davis MIND Institute, PRIDE Industries, Meristem , and others — to share real-world examples of inclusive employment in action.

At Purple Tree, we see every day how meaningful, supported employment builds confidence, community, and opportunity. We’re proud to help showcase what inclusive workplaces can look like and why they matter.

If you’re an employer, HR professional, business owner, educator, or community partner, we encourage you to register. And even if these webinars are not for you personally, sharing them with employers and organizations in your network would help us expand the conversation around inclusive employment and disability inclusion.

We hope you’ll join us! 💜

Little Green Alien 👽 recently attempted to measure Purple Tree's total energy outputs with specialized intergalactic instruments. 📡📶

At first, the readings were completely normal:
☕ espresso production
🍪 pastry distribution
👣 customer traffic
⚡ caffeine activity

But then his instruments detected employees encouraging one another, customers patiently supporting the team during busy moments, and people returning again and again because they genuinely care about the mission. That's when the warnings started flashing. Apparently kindness, encouragement, and community support are completely OFF THE CHARTS 📈💜

Little Green Alien has detected nothing else like this in our universe. 🌌

Every purchase and donation helps support meaningful, community-based employment opportunities for people with disabilities. And thanks to our Little Green Alien, the NEXT $4,000 donated will still be MATCHED dollar-for-dollar through May 31.

Mom 👽 spent most of her visit yesterday quietly observing the people around her.

She noticed customers patiently waiting during busy moments, employees encouraging one another behind the counter, and the way everyone seemed genuinely happy to be there together. By the end of the visit, she told the family the atmosphere felt welcoming in a way that was difficult to describe… but very easy to feel. 💜

That sense of community is what Purple Tree is all about. Every purchase helps create meaningful, community-based employment opportunities for people with disabilities while building spaces where people feel valued, supported, and connected. Donations help sustain that mission too, and the NEXT $4,000 donated will still be MATCHED dollar-for-dollar by the Little Green Alien through May 31.

Sister 💫 arrived at Purple Tree yesterday with a very important mission: carefully document Earth’s baked goods for intergalactic cultural archives.

She spent nearly 20 minutes selecting the perfect cookies, adjusting lighting, and taking photos for the record. Unfortunately, the investigation took an unexpected turn when the evidence became too delicious to preserve. We can neither confirm nor deny whether additional “research samples” disappeared afterward. 📸🍪👽💜

Every product purchased at Purple Tree helps support meaningful, community-based employment opportunities for people with disabilities in Sacramento and Davis. Your donations help support that mission too.

The next $4,000 donated will still be MATCHED dollar-for-dollar by the Little Green Alien through May 31.
