$10

Paying It Forward Friend

This gift may seem small, but it is roughly six times the current commodity coffee price per pound that most farmers are paid for their specialty coffee.

$20

Weekly Warrior

This gift is the equivalent to what the average American spends on coffee in a week.

$50

Green Machine

Your gift can help cover the sustainable development of 12 bags of coffee.

$100

Cupping Sponsor

Your gift can help us cover the costs of special GFE coffee cupping that puts Ivania’s and Ramona’s coffees in front of specialty coffee roasters from Atlanta, Georgia. This is a critical moment for GFE growers to showcase themselves and their coffees to potential buyers.

$500

Network Travel Sponsor

Your gift can help cover the travel costs for our two GFE farmers as they visit Atlanta and Seattle to engage with customers, supporters, and other coffee professionals—these connections are the most important part of our program.

$1,000

Booth Buddy

Your gift can help cover approximately half the cost of a booth for the GFE program and growers at the Specialty Coffee Association of America Expo in Seattle.

$2,300

Three Sixty-Five Club Member

Your gift, according to the SCAA, is equal to the average annual income of a smallholder coffee farmer (or a male grower … women growers earn much less).
