BEANS 2 BANDAIDS

What this record means

The record shows that “BEANS 2 BANDAIDS” is an abandoned service mark; the application was filed by Tony Asbille, a Texas corporation, on April 15 2015 and the USPTO issued an abandonment notice on February 19 2016 after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The only goods and services listed are charitable activities in class 035, specifically coordination of food and supply donations to needy persons, free health‑care clinics, public‑awareness programs about poverty and autism, all described as charitable services. Because the protection is limited to those charitable functions, a similar name used for unrelated products—say, a bandage or food brand—would be farther from the scope shown here, while another charitable program using the same wording would present the closest record‑based concern. The prosecution history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan a charitable service with a comparable name, but the abandonment means the mark no longer blocks use.
