Mennonite Central Committee Coffee Project Print E-mail
Image The MCC Coffee Project is an innovative way to help people in need while enjoying fellowship and an excellent cup of coffee. As Christians we can address a consumer dilemma by buying coffee that is fairly traded. Mennonite and Brethren in Christ congregations that participate are helping small scale farmers in Latin America, Africa and Asia earn a fairer share of income, obtain access to credit and technical support, and gain a trading partner they can trust, a fair trade organization called Equal Exchange.

In your congregation, a women’s group, youth group, mission or peace and justice committee might sponsor the MCC Coffee Project. Then, as your congregation enjoys this high-quality coffee, take time to learn more about its impact on the people who grow it. Read about coffee farmers and the ways in which the Mennonite Central Committee is helping their communities. Discuss issues of justice in the global marketplace and take action in the spirit of love.
