My name is Tarah Herdegen. We brought our daughter home from her birth country of Ethiopia one year ago. After being there, after opening our eyes, we know there is so much more that we should all be doing to help.

We are buying coffee from Dominion Trading. They are a fair trade Christian company that builds churches and schools in Ethiopia. They found that the Ethiopians want to be self sufficient, so they could go in, help them get started, and know they would succeed. Because they fairly pay the farmers, and do so much to give back, we chose this company. They are giving us amazing shade grown Ethiopian Coffee at cost. We will sell it, and the extra money we make, the kids will be sending to AHOPE. This is an amazing orphanage in Addis Ababa that houses children with HIV. They are always in need of money and supplies.If you would like to buy coffee to help us, we would love it!!
Regular is $10 a bag
Decaf is $11 a bag.

We will be doing this through the month of February and send our check to AHOPE at the beginning of March. If you would like to help us by buying coffee, we would be so grateful.

Thank you so much for helping us make this an amazing fundraiser and teaching our kiddos the importance of giving back.
