After living in the western mountains of Honduras for two years as a Peace Corps Volunteer, Eco Café’s founder Eric Harrison wanted to do more to help the local people of Honduras. He wanted a sustainable project that could help provide for better education, health, and clean water systems. He thought to himself, “why can’t a coffee company improve the living conditions of the poor farmers they are profiting from?” Thus the creation of Eco Café. He decided it was time to define a new meaning to giving back. 100% of Eco Café’s profits are donated to a non-profit organization dedicated to improving water and sanitation systems and health projects in third world countries. Therefore, every bag of Eco Coffee you buy is helping to improve the lives of the world’s poorest citizens.
