Enjoy Café Mujer and change the lives of Peruvian female coffee farmers!

TransFair USA





The
act of raising a family alone is not easy, but being a women
entrepreneur with only a small coffee plot to provide for your children
is downright heroic. For Peruvian female farmers in this situation, Green Awakening
created Café Mujer. The company works directly with cooperatives to
source organically grown coffee, which results in an increase in farmer
income by at least 30% when compared with farmer sales to importers.


For three weeks this summer starting today, TransFair USA
will receive a $2.50 donation from every bag you buy from Green
Awakening! Please help them give this gift to the Fair Trade movement.
As a gift to you, any order with six or more bags will have free
shipping. What a great way to stock up on coffee, change the lives of
women in Peru, and support the Fair Trade movement directly.


Green Awakening is a savory, all-organic, 100% Fair Trade Certified™
coffee grown exclusively by small cooperatives in the mountains of
Peru. Their motto? “Better Taste. Better Conscience.”


Let’s work together to make these women role models, inspiring young
girls in Peru and America while having a Green Awakening with delicious
coffee!
