    Story

    Last week we started hearing some harrowing stories in and around our family coffee farm in Medellin Colombia of families in adjoining neighborhoods with literally no money to buy food and children who haven’t eaten in days. After a few sleepless nights, lots of research and late night zoom calls asking- what can we do? and how can we help? we came across Sonrisa A La Calle.

    The Medellin based charity was set up by some dynamic young folks to support kids, through mentoring, building confidence and resilience. They aim to reduce the stats of these kids ending up in gangs or on the street.They have had to pivot their operations entirely in recent weeks due the corona virus pandemic to ensure the kids they support and their families are not starving. With strict curfews in place and families living hand to mouth, there is now no money, little government support and they are unable to feed their families .

    Sonrisa A La Calle have negotiated a deal with the Medellin supermarkets to purchase food parcels at cost.They already have volunteers in each of the neighborhoods ready to deliver food parcels. The more funds they have the more families they can reach and help.

    We can't carry on roasting their incredible coffee without doing something to help. We hope you will join us in getting urgent aid packages to families in Medellin.

    How your donations will help -

    £3 will help a family of 4 by providing a food package for a week

    £12 will help a a family of 4 with a food package for a month

    Thank you
