SUPPORTING OUR COMMUNITIES
Because joy to go is for everyone.
Our commitment
We’ve promised to make a positive difference in every country and community in which we operate. Through Selecta Coffee Fund we invest to support communities throughout our supply chain. We also engage in local initiatives to help those in need, in the markets we serve.
HOW WE SUPPORT OUR CLIENTS’ GOALS
With our activities for the Selecta Coffee Fund, we aim to contribute to improving the livelihoods of coffee growing families in Rwanda and the development of their community.

SELECTA COFFEE FUND
Through our Selecta Coffee Fund we invest directly to improve the livelihoods of smallholder coffee farmers and their families in Rwanda. In 2019 we provided 42 households with a cow each, giving them a valuable source of protein, additional income, and fertilizer to increase their coffee yields. We’ve also supported the construction of an early education centre, providing 168 children with meals and teaching in the local language.
Giving back to our local communities
Joy to go means supporting every community we serve, through projects that range from food banks to social inclusion initiatives. We work with local charities such as DENS and Mind Herts to raise awareness, volunteer and contribute as part of their fund-raising events.
