Here's how your everyday coffee order could make a big difference to a brilliant cause.

Whether it's part of your morning commute, a warm-up during a cold winter weekend or a pit stop on the drive back home for Christmas, a warming cuppa goes hand-in-hand with this time of year. But aside from being a much-loved ritual or routine, did you know your go-to coffee order could also be a way to support a good cause this Christmas? Maxol's ROSA Coffee Christmas Cup Fundraiser is back again this year, helping raise vital funds for Aware - and to celebrate, you could WIN a €100 Maxol fuel voucher and a hamper filled with festive goodies! Read on to find out how you can enter and win... Aware is a national organisation providing free support and information services to those impacted by anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and related mood conditions. For every cup of Maxol coffee sold in November and December, 10c will be donated to Aware, to help raise essential funds to support their incredible work.

But this year, Maxol is taking it one step further and giving their Christmas cup even more meaning. They've also launched the Cup of Kindness initiative, encouraging customers to gift a coffee or hot drink to someone else.

At the till, customers will be encouraged to gift a ROSA Coffee or hot drink to a friend or stranger. The customer simply pays for two hot drinks, one for themselves and one for someone else. They'll then be invited to write a kind message on a star, which will be hung on a tree in the store and can be used by the next customer to pay for their hot drink.

Maxol hopes that this will spark a cycle of kindness during the festive season that will help improve people's day and raise much-needed funding for Aware, with 10c from every single hot drink purchased going to the charity.

But wait, there's more! To celebrate the return of Maxol's Christmas Cup fundraiser and the launch of Cup of Kindness, they're giving you the chance to WIN a Maxol hamper of goodies. The hamper includes loads of sweet festive treats and a €100 fuel voucher for yourself AND one for you to gift to a friend, a very nice priza to get your hands on ahead of the festive season.
