Just before the Christmas holiday, I sent a note to people on our Stone Creek email list asking them to join us in donating meals to the children of coffee harvesters that grow our Brazilian coffee. We did this in lieu of sending holiday cards to our customers and friends because it was consistent with our values and helped to make the lives of people that support our business a little bit better.

Wow...what a great response we had. I wanted to personally thank our staff and customers that purchased meals. Over the last few weeks 510 meals have been donated by friends, customers and employees of Stone Creek. I will personally be matching your generous donation. In total we will be buying 1510 meals for the school...this is a total of about $1000 that is going to the school. While this is not a huge number, the intent and impact is tremendous. I was overjoyed to see the donations come in from, not only our customers, but many Stone Creek Coffee employees.

Take a few minutes to check out the Socially Conscious Coffee website to learn more about the farm and school.

Your donation and our work with the school is the fulfillment of one of our companys stated missions and the embodiment of why I started this company. Fifteen years ago we embarked on this journey rooted in a belief that we could build a company that not only earns a profit but does so in sustainable socially conscious manner.

My sincere thanks for your kind donation and your support of our company and our mission.
