Coffee Kids is an international non-profit organization established to improve the quality of life for children and families who live in coffee-growing communities around the world.
Coffee Kids believes that programs must be community-based and founded on the principles of sustainability. This means that each program is structured so that new economic dependencies will not be created and so that each program can flourish independent of outside support. Because every coffee-growing community is unique, every Coffee-Kids program is unique. What is common is an attitude of respect: respect for all people's values, cultural integrity, intelligence, and ingenuity.
Coffee Kids currently works in four countries: Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica. Several thousand families in over a hundred communities benefit from Coffee Kids' programs.
