The Coffee Trust promotes grassroots development in select coffee-producing communities supporting locally controlled development work that focuses on education, health, economic development and food sovereignty.
The Coffee Trust envisions a future whereby…
- farmers grow their own food on their own land
- farmers are less dependent upon coffee as a sole source of income
- farmers share knowledge laterally, from farmer to farmer
- farming communities are strengthened through self-empowerment
- women have a voice in their own home and their own communities
- stronger local NGOs take the major role in facilitating sustainable development
- coffee farmers are less dependent upon foreign NGOs
The Coffee Trust values…
- the strength inherent in struggling coffee-producing communities that have survived armed conflicts, paltry income, natural disasters, gender bias, political, economic and social disenfranchisement and manage to produce the world’s finest quality coffee.
- the entrepreneurial spirit, creativity and commitment to family, culture and work that coffee-producing families have demonstrated despite low income, poor education, lack of health care and food scarcity.
cohesive communities that have evolved from deep cultural values that have been passed on from generation to generation.
- the role of women as a fundamental component to strengthening the family and the entire community.
- self-sufficiency for farmers
- local solutions for local problems
