I WENT TO RECREO COFFEE & ROASTERIE ON FEBRUARY 22TH.
This coffee shop offers many excellent coffees made by coffee beans is grown at their family farm in Jinotega, Nicaragua. This country is not a developing country but a little bit poor area.
The most important information I learned is a good cycle that the coffee shop and farm do.
The coffee shop procures coffee beans from Jinotega, and they donate 35％ of the money to their farm from income.
They provide numerous facilities to ensure their farm employees maintain a high standard of living, including a school for children, a health center for all employees and their families, and technical training for adults. In addition, the people who work at the farm where the coffee beans are grown get a free house, three meals a day, medical care, etc.
I could watch some pictures where many children are smiling with daily necessities such as toothbrushes and playing basketball. It means they can buy daily needs because of the coffee shop donations.
I think this cycle is essential for poor people. The children looked happy in the pictures.
My research topic is poverty in South Sudan. I think this activity is one of the effective ways to solve the poverty problem. We drink coffee; we can help developing countries.
I want to know more about the activity to help developing countries like this coffee shop.
I want to recommend anyone who wants to learn ways to help poor people directly. Also, we can repeat coffee many times free from the second time. So I want everyone to goes this coffee shop and help poor people.
