Dear Corporate World
ways to help the homeless and in particular the homeless child
Dear American Worker:
Do you want a means to directly help homeless children and global orphans where 100% of your donation goes to helping children? Want this charitable donation to help build a sense of community in your office? And here’s a twist ? at the same time you can greatly improve the coffee you serve in your office.
For most Americans, the best way to start one’s day is with the perfect cup of coffee. It wakes up the senses and kicks the day into high gear. At Mission Grounds, we offer a great gourmet coffee that will make a difference in the life of a child. Though not a religious organization, our business was founded by a small group of friends who felt God’s calling to help impoverished and neglected children in Atlanta and in countries around the world. While on various mission trips, we realized that children are the ones who suffer the most in poor economic conditions. They are easily abandoned or neglected by their parents and oftentimes must survive with no job, no training, and no formal education. Through Mission Grounds’ partnerships, we endeavor to help these children by donating all our proceeds to needy children.
When we started our organization, we knew that our circle of friends would buy the coffee at least once to help children. Our hope was that they would continue to buy it because the quality and flavor surpassed any other coffee in their kitchens or corner coffee shops. We are happy to say that our circle of friends continues to grow ? http://www.missiongrounds.com/ourphilosophy.php The only overhead costs incurred by Mission Grounds are those required to transport the coffee to the store and properly display it. These expenses are less than 5% of our total costs, yet 100% of our proceeds are donated to children. By adhering to Fair Trade guidelines, we are able to help even more children by pouring money into local economies.
Since our inception in late 2005, Mission Grounds ? www.missiongrounds.com - has donated approximately $121,800 to children in Atlanta and around the world. Financial support has been used to build orphanages and provide care to infants needing formula and medical care associated with HIV. We anticipate assisting with more orphanage construction projects in 2008 but need your help to continue helping these precious children. And with all our donations we make sure 100 percent of the donation goes to the homeless children. Unlike other non profits we are an operating business with steady income so we don’t have to use our donations to offset overhead. So take comfort your corporate donation is all going to help kids.
The Corporate Coffee Club (Make a monthly donation to homeless children ? receive a monthly supply of the finest gourmet coffee)
Mission Grounds requests companies to consider serving our coffee and making a corporate donation on top of the coffee expense allowing us to continue to support more and more homeless children. We have initiated an online sales program via our website. And we are selling very well at our existing stores - without any marketing we are in the top three coffee sales for Kroger - Proving its a great tasting gourmet coffee.
So you serve a better coffee. And help homeless children. And build a sense of community. We can set up company out reach days for your employees too. What an easy home run: turn your current coffee expense into a way to help homeless children and build the morale in your office too. And every day when your employees drink their coffee - it’s a subtle but smooth reminder of what a great thing their company is doing. So your company donates $100 or $200 or $500 per month to help homeless children and in return receives its monthly gourmet coffee.
The Children’s Club:
And if you are a small business or want to help personally we have a great way to Help A Homeless Child Program : ? The Children’s Club?. You donate a monthly amount to a certain homeless shelter or orphanage and in return receive two bags of coffee. For example you can donate $20, or $25 or even $50 to the Jars of Clay Homeless Shelter in Atlanta and in return every month receive two bags of coffee. So you are getting a great coffee and supporting a homeless child every month with a easy monthly donation. And the plan is flexible and allows you to budget what you can afford or want to donate. http://www.missiongrounds.com/storybehindsite.php

About Our Coffee: http://www.missiongrounds.com/ourcoffee.php Costa Rica has over 200 identifiable volcanic formations dating back over 65 million years. The volcanoes in Costa Rica lie in the northern part of the country and in the Central Highlands; these are prime gourmet coffee growing regions. Due to the many volcanic eruptions over the past millennia, the soil in Costa Rica is rich in many minerals and very fertile. This natural fertility contributes to the production of unique and exceptional coffee. Mission Grounds uses the finest shade grown top of the volcano coffee , the only pure number one select coffee. The number one grade is only grown in small quantities and we purchase all of it. So if you want the highest grade of Tarrazu gourmet coffee? you have to purchase Mission Grounds Gourmet Coffee. Buying any other gourmet coffee is settling for second best.
