Believing in the community

At SunnKiss, community has always come first. 618 Day is more than a celebration for us — it's a reminder of where we come from, who helped shape us, and why we continue to grow with purpose. East St. Louis and the entire 618 area represent resilience, culture, creativity, family, and pride. SunnKiss was built from real moments, real people, and generations of love passed down through food, tea, laughter, music, and community connection. Because of that, we believe success means nothing if you don't pour back into the people around you. As SunnKiss continues to grow, our mission will always include supporting community events, creating safe and positive spaces, uplifting local businesses, encouraging youth entrepreneurship, and bringing people together through shared experiences. Whether it's a neighborhood gathering, a school celebration, a vendor event, or simply providing moments of joy through our flavors — we are committed to being present and involved.

618 Day is a celebration of the people. — one cup, one conversation, and one connection at a time.
