OUR INITIATIVE:
We are
empowering the Wacuco Kuna community in the Darién Region of Panamá to invest in and enrich their coffee
business. By providing the tools and resources needed to increase coffee production, we can change the future.
We are committed to creating a sustainable future for the community and its families; a place where there is no worry about the scarcity of clean running water, a place where electricity is prominent and education is thriving.
Our initiative,
Café de Kuna, will provide the community with education workshops on best practices concerning coffee, organics, and sustainability. We can also provide the materials and instruction needed to build a communal greenhouse for the coffee farmers.
WHY IT MATTERS:
Even in the absence of the simplest luxuries of life, the community strives to live full and happy lives. You can see it in their smiles, and the way they talk about their families and community with pride.
But they deserve more. They deserve a path out of poverty; and coffee, is that path. With access to the resources and knowledege needed to improve their coffee production, we can help them achieve financial freedom and a sustainable future.
