Coffee that cares

One of the country’s most enlightened coffee businesses, Dublin’s Cloudpicker continue their involvement in Project Waterfall, a worldwide initiative from the global coffee industry to support those primary producers whose lives, not to mind livelihoods, have been gravely compromised by a lack of access to clean water, an issue for some 771m people around the world. The majority live in isolated, rural areas, especially those growing coffee beans.
