White Flag Coffee
A coffee to support those in need in times of a global pandemic
The white Flags
The effects of the pandemic, caused by Covid-19, hit people all over the world. Many who have fallen sick are in mortal danger, countries are in lockdown and the economic consequences of the security measures cause unemployment, and therefore often poverty and hunger. In Guatemala, the white flags hang from houses as a sign that those who live there have no more income and suffer from hunger. But the white flags are also a symbol of solidarity in difficult times. Aid organizations and neighborhood projects come together and try to help affected families.
Why we care
We are witness to this situation, as our coffee-import of Meet Los Amigos has been based in Guatemala since the beginning of 2020 and we will continue to stay here together with our family. We see our neighbors in need and have decided to do everything we can to help them.
What we do
Together with our coffee producer, Theodoro Engelhardt of Finca la Bella, we have created a community-blend of his coffees, which we offer our roasters in Europe as “White Flag Coffee”.
The profit from the sale of this green coffee and from all merchandise articles go 100% to aid organizations here in Guatemala which help to support families with food, hygiene articles, and medicine.
