Two women in the rural Gakenke District of north Rwanda meet each other on the road and one greets the other with and encouragement "Hinga Kawa" or "cultivate coffee" and the other will respond "Umugore mw'iterambere" or "women in development". This community mantra has led this community from poverty post-genocide to producing high quality, organic, fair trade coffee through years of meticulous effort.
We work directly with the farmers at Hinga Kawa to ensure we pay premium price for premium coffee. For every coffee bag sold, we are able to ensure a measurable social impact.
