The Kindness ROCKS ONEbean Coffee Project

We are excited to announce our recent partnership with the ONEbean Coffee Company. This is our favourite and most unique fundraising initiative, which not only helps bring Kindness ROCKS to thousands of students throughout Canada, but also helps to raise money for other non-profit organizations as well!

Here are the ways that you can get involved in the ONEbean Coffee Project…

Become a Partner

We are interested in partnering with Schools, School boards, PAC’s, Sports leagues & teams, Rotary & Lions Clubs, Seniors Organizations, Individuals and Community groups, to sell fair-trade, organic coffee throughout your school, organization or community. Half of the proceeds would go to Kindness ROCKS and half would go directly to your cause or organization. Here is an example of what you can raise for your organization. The below totals reflect your share of the proceeds! 

$3600.00
based on 1lb bags at $18ea, with $2.50 going to your organization

  
Many people who try ONEbean coffee, keep on ordering it. The revenue from those repeat orders, continues to go to your organization, for potentially years to come! As an example, if 60 people were to buy 2 bags of coffee every month for a year, an additional $3600 would go directly to your cause!

About Kindness Rocks ONEbean Coffee

ONEbean offers only 100% Arabica beans – organically grown, fairly traded, and masterfully roasted. Of the two types of beans grown today: Arabica and Robusta. Arabica beans account for about 75% of the market, and have become the standard for coffee lovers around the globe. All of our coffees are perfected in small batch roasters so you can be guaranteed of freshness.

How Fair Trade works
Over 25 million farmers and coffee workers in more than 50 countries produce coffee worldwide. When you buy Certified FAIR TRADE coffee, (always accompanied by the logo above) you're helping improve the working conditions and quality of life for many. Fair Trade is an organized social movement which focuses on goods being exported from underdeveloped economic areas into more established markets. Fair Trade practices are now helping coffee farmers as well as producers of such products as cocoa, honey, bananas, tea, cotton, wine and handicrafts.

Under fair trade guideline, the coffee farmer receives an agreed upon minimum price for their products. When you see the Fair Trade logo on the coffee you buy from ONEbean you can be assured that the purchasing of the 'green' (unroasted) coffee beans is being monitored closely. Not only do the coffee farmers receive a fair price for their products, but the Fair Trade program includes a mechanism to bring social change to the farming community and includes the following:

Certified Organic - more than a buzzword
Certified Organic refers to a series of controls placed on coffee growers by the Organic Crop Improvement Association. All OCIA certified products are all natural and free of pesticides. With these harmful chemicals removed from the agricultural process, farm workers and their families have a brighter future, and even you, the consumer, are guaranteed a healthier coffee experience.
