Our Story :

At heart and soul, we are volunteers. Our favorite axiom? Go big or go home. [On some days, it’s the dog/hydrant one].

We began our adventures in coffee by using it as a way to raise funds for Haiti for economic development projects. We were so successful that we created a nonprofit called Singing Rooster.org [we sell Haitian coffee to raise money for Haiti].

Then, as life would have it, our family was thrown a curve ball that came hard and fast. Two nephews were diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis, which inspired us to reach out in a second [third/fourth] direction. Blessed with Norwegian pragmatism, we thought: We have great tasting and incredibly RARE coffee. People drink coffee by the millions of gallons each year. Let’s use it to raise awareness and money to help find the cure for Cystic Fibrosis or whatever else needs fixing.

If you want to use Java for the Cure coffee to raise awareness and funds for your organization, contact us. We like to help.

Can coffee change lives?

We’re willing to bet on it.

Details :

Java for the Cure.org is organized and operated by Molly Nicaise with the support of her darling family. It is, technically, an offshoot of SingingRooster.org [we simply didn’t have the energy or time to create another nonprofit; the paperwork is daunting, and we’re still completing it for the Rooster].

A hefty $5.50 of every bag of coffee sold helps people:

$2.50 goes back to Haiti to support Haitian coffee farmers, coops and economic development projects.

$3 helps the fundraising charity.

The remaining $3.50 goes towards import/export costs, roasting & coffee bags, shipping, marketing, and if there’s anything leftover, to Molly [so that she can quit her day job and focus exclusively on helping others]. Her promise to you [and documented publicly] is that she’ll never be a nonprofit leader with a 6-figure salary. Nobody needs that much money.
