Drink Coffee, Do Good

Posted by Chris Case | October 15, 2007 .

With an upstart blog, I have the flexibility to choose the rhythm and patterns that the blog will take. I think every Monday, I will highlight a ministry, organization, website, etc., that seek to further the kingdom in a creative or ingenious way.

Apparently, coffee in Rwanda is really, really good. One company is interested in helping to econically and socially reconcile the area by harvesting the coffee in Rwanda and selling it here in America. The Land of a Thousand Hills Coffee offers partnerships with churches, so that churches can be proactive about world change in something as small as offering coffee on Sundays. “This is not charity. Rwandans want to work, not receive a short-term handout. This is both a blessing and a hand up. Additional profits from sales provide widows with micro-loans, they become entrepreneurs, learn to be self-sufficient and tend to that spark that God has put in them.” (from here)

    I love Land of A Thousand Hills! I have been using them at events for about 2 years now. They are the best!
