Foreword
It is now more than twenty years since I first founded CUP&CINO, and I would like to give something back to the many people who have helped to make us the success we are today. It was many years before I was able to fulfil my heart’s desire. Of course, I also considered supporting existing organisations, but I always like to know what is being done with the money that is collected. Unfortunately, I was never able to find anything that truly satisfied me – which is why we founded the CUP&CINO Foundation. I want the foundation to support social projects in coffee-growing countries. Every single project is planned in advance, and all our supporters can follow them throughout the year on our website. This transparency is particularly important to me. I think we can achieve a tremendous amount if we team up with our customers. Let’s work towards a fair coffee world together!
