Join Women Choosing Women to honor inspiring women in the coffee industry and their commitment to women at origin. This began in honor of our 25th anniversary in 2021, when we invited women in coffee to donate $1,000 toward our cervical cancer prevention programs. We received so much support that we decided to make this a long-term campaign.

This initiative is powerful and inspiring and speaks to our collective value and commitment to women’s health equity.

“My fear was, I will be a cancer patient and I will lose my life. And I will lose my kids and my family. Now I am treated and this is a very good thing for me. Thank you for bringing this service to us.”
