Grounds For Health is NCA’s 2018 Coffee Charity of the Year

The National Coffee Association U.S.A is proud to name Grounds For Health as the first-ever recipient of the NCA Origin Charity of the Year Award.

The new NCA Origin Charity of the Year Award aims to bring a spotlight on the organizations working in coffee communities around the world to help those farmers who are challenged by these circumstances.

Club Coffee named Grounds For Health as their charitable organization of choice in 2017. We believe that Grounds For Health is a fantastic organization on a number of fronts and receiving this award is well deserved.
