AN OVERVIEW

We bring clean water, sanitation and education to coffee-growing communities across the world.

There is a huge overlap in the people who grow our coffee and the 703 million people around the world today that don’t have access to clean water. Our mission is to unite the global coffee industry to help end this water crisis through community-led projects.

Access to clean water changes everything. Child mortality rates drop. Girls can spend more time in school. Women can start their own businesses. And dignity is restored to communities.

Our approach

Regardless of where a community is, or how big it is, there are tangible and sustainable solutions to the water crisis.

All the projects we fund train local people who can continue to maintain the water source long after we have left, ensuring a permanent supply of clean water.

We work with local delivery partners who have the knowledge and expertise to deliver the best possible solution for each community.

These can range from solutions creating access to water, such as hand digging wells or using a drilling team, to solutions that improve the quality of it, such as bio sand filters or water purification systems.
