Clinton Foundation Coffee Summit, November 2011
Singing Rooster joined the Clinton Foundation's Coffee summit in Haiti, November 2011.
We made lots of new friends and came together with other nonprofits, for profits, farmers, roasters, exporters, and the Haitian government to discuss Haiti's coffee future.
By working together, we can assure farmers get the support they need to live better lives -- to become leaders of their communities, providers of stability.

Private Labeling: some groups want to use their own labels on our delicious Haitian coffee. It's possible, but requires a little work
SERRV.org puts a simple sticker about their organization on the back of the Rooster's coffee bag.

The Children's Peace Project fills beautiful purple bags with the Rooster's roasted coffee (we helped them pick the bag & make the sticker) |
