Filanthrope is a non-profit, 501(c)3 charity that works through sustainable development, indigenous rights, and specialty coffee to heal the world one cup at a time. We’re doing this through a method called ‘Gift-Exchange’, where gifts – whether skills, infrastructure, monetary contributions, or roasted specialty coffee – are mutually donated in an ever growing network of coffee lovers and indigenous, ethnic-minority farming families who suffer the pains of extreme poverty. We facilitate a relationship for those who wish to live in a world where the coffee they love represents more than coffee…but a direct relationship to improve a community’s livelihood to make the world a better place.

Coffee from each community consistently ranks in the top 1% of coffee quality in the world. Their coffee is grown with love and given to you as their way of saying thanks for your support. Learn about what it takes to make great coffee.

We’re sharing biodynamic and organic farming techniques with our partner farmers across Asia and helping their communities implement development and infrastructure projects like building schools and starting seedling nurseries.

fi-lan’thro-pe is a 501(c)3 non-profit charity currently working directly with indigenous, tribal coffee farmers and their communities within India, Indonesia, Laos, and Vietnam. We work to realign the value paid and received for specialty coffee on a global scale in order to alleviate poverty within indigenous, tribal farming communities.
