The 20/20 Project 3.56

Why 20/20 Project?

We are already working with communities and farmers in both Africa and Asia. They are reaping the benefits of community development and health improvements as well as increased income from coffee. Many are already shifting their production methods to mitigate the risks of climate change.

We call this the 20/20 Project because...

2020 is the year farmers trained on our model farm in Nepal, will reap their first harvest 20/20 represents perfect sight: a real gift to communities affected by blinding illness. 20/20 represents an equal balance of gender in this initiative

Poverty Reduction

The 20/20 Project empowers farmers and communities to increase their capacity. They produce higher quality coffee in larger quantities. The increased income provides for education, healthcare, and community development. Working cooperatively, individuals and communities bring about sustainable development.

Why join the 20/20 Project?

The 20/20 Project, is passionate about two things: quality coffee, poverty reduction and healthy living. We are looking for partners who are equally passionate. We are willing to share our track record in change, and our 140 years' experience in the developing world.
