Fair Trade Coffee and Chocolate
Now you can support local Big Sisters mentoring programs just by purchasing products you use every day. And with our fair trade coffee and chocolate purchased from carefully chosen suppliers, you get the added assurance that producers are getting a fair price, sustainable agriculture is used, and children are not exploited in production.
Coffee
This coffee features caramel and cocoa fragrances and a smooth but full bodied flavour. It is grown on small-scale farms in Columbia. In addition to a guaranteed price for farmers, the cooperative approach means investing in the communities where coffee is grown. This means scholarships for school and university, health benefits for women workers and their families, and a benevolent fund for coffee families in crisis. You get great coffee, Big Sisters benefits, everybody wins!
