Papua New Guinea

Farm: Madan Estate
Project: Literacy Program

We are working with the Madan Estate owners to support their Women's Literacy program that seeks to expose women to the joys of reading. We, along with our loyal customers, are soliciting new and used books that we will ship to the estate for distribution. This pennies per pound program means a lot of books for the women and children of this region. We have ponied up 3 cents to each pound of coffee purchased, which amounts to roughly $6,000 this year. These monies will help fund various aspects of the program such as reading instruction as well as contribute toward the bigger goal of a community education center.

This project makes strides toward the Millennium Development goal that seeks to achieve gender equality.
