We would like to offer up a huge THANK YOU to our friends at 35 North Coffee Co. They have recently launched their business, selling fair trade coffee with roasting on demand. For those of us living a world away from home and “coffee central” in the US, this sounds like heaven! But this is not the only aspect of heaven involved. Not only does buying and selling fair trade ensure farmers are receiving above market rates – enabling them to reinvest in their communities – but 35 North is also investing in our community here. They have chosen to donate a percentage of all their proceeds to Baby Safe!
So thank you friends, for investing in the work of the Kingdom and doing “All things as unto the LORD”. And to our fellow coffee-addicts, let us encourage you; next time you are craving and contemplating a bag of fresh, dark, roasted goodness, consider checking out 35 North. Not only will you get some fantastic coffee, but be giving back to your own communities, as well as the mothers and children of South Africa!
