Good Coffee Doing Good

Good Coffee Doing Good

Simple name. Endless possibilities.

Launched in 2020, Good Coffee Doing Good is our project-based fundraising program that utilises the power of the specialty-coffee-loving collective to create positive social and environmental impacts. Good Coffee Doing Good provides a platform to consider and discuss coffee through the lens of people and community and to further give back and support our communities, both at coffee growing origin and here in Australia.

In addition to raising funds for a range of worthy causes, Good Coffee Doing Good also serves to shine a light on the many social and environmental issues that are faced by the global coffee industry.

Through Good Coffee Doing Good, we’re proud to present to you super delicious coffees, highlight incredible stories and support our friends all over the world doing incredibly good things.

How it works

Look for products with the Good Coffee Doing Good mark. Along with being ethically and sustainably sourced, these coffees and products will spotlight and celebrate our friends all over the world doing good things at origin or locally.

You can read more in the blog below.

How to get involved

Along with being ethically and sustainably sourced, these coffees and products will spotlight and celebrate our friends all over the world doing good things at origin or locally.
