Costa

ABOUT THE FOUNDATION
In 2006, the Costa Foundation was set up to improve the welfare of coffee-growing communities in countries such as Colombia, Guatemala, Uganda, Ethiopia and Costa Rica.

By the end of 2010, we'll have completed our sixteenth school and made a very real difference to the everyday lives of the coffee-growers and their communities.

Without you, our loyal customers, not one of these projects would have been possible. Thank you for your continued generosity.

The Costa Foundation is working with an independent charity partner, Charities Trust, and is operating under the auspices of Charities Trust's registered charity number 327489. Charities Trust is wholly responsible for the administration of the Costa Foundation. This allows the Costa Foundation trustees to focus on which projects to support and getting behind their peoples' fundraising efforts.

Charities Trust will also claim Gift Aid (to reclaim the basic rate income tax on donations made to them by UK taxpayers) and provide management reports detailing where monies have been raised and allocated.
