ATLANTA, GA (May 21, 2015) – Americans consume 400 million cups of coffee per day, according to a recent Huffington Post article. How many of those cups help create better lives for people? Cozzee™, a hybrid word for coffee and a cause, is the new, socially conscious way to buy and consume specialty coffee. The company is leading the way for a new movement that gives 100% of profits to charitable organizations.
Launching today, Cozzee, offers fresh, direct trade coffee from the best producing regions of the world, while simultaneously having a global social impact.
Here’s how it works:
- Visit www.cozzee.org
- Select coffee preference. Choices include: pour-over/drip, French press, cold brew or espresso from various top-producing regions in the world
- Select a charity from one of seven different cause categories. Choices include: Water & Wells, Food & Farming, Shirts & Shoes, Health & Healing, Rescue & Restore, Shelter & Stability, and Justice & Jury
- Check out and expect your freshly roasted coffee in 48 hours
Cozzee coffee is world class, specialty grade, roasted to order coffee made only with the top 10% of Arabica beans available. Prices start at $15.95 for a 12oz bag, with $2-$3/per bag sold going to the charities. Cozzee’s coffee source and charities rotate on a seven week basis.
Cozzee’s initial charities are:
- Generosity.org (Water and Wells)
- Action Against Hunger (Food and Farming)
- Care For Aids (Health and Healing)
- The African Soup (Shirts and Shoes)
- iSanctuary (Rescue and Restoration)
- Foundation Communities (Shelters and Stability)
- Innocence Project (Justice and Jury)
“Cozzee’s goal is to produce a universally valued product in a socially responsible manner and then offer consumers the opportunity to see their purchase have a positive impact on the world,” said Garry Williams, CEO and co-founder of Cozzee. “Coffee is a natural product choice and at the end of the day, we and our customers are making a direct and meaningful change in the world. Cozzee makes a real difference, one cup at a time.”
Cozzee’s impact, and that of its consumers’ purchases, can be easily understood by their transparent and clearly spelled out donation affiliations. For example, a two-bag purchase with a charity selection of “Food & Farming” gives a fruit tree to a farming family need; a three-bag purchase with a charity selection of “Shelter & Stability” helps provide a bed for a family that was recently homeless; and a two-bag purchase with a charity selection of “Rescue & Restoration” provides school fees for one survivor of human trafficking.
Through affiliating with global causes, Cozzee brings the charities they support and the people those charities serve to life. Consumers know exactly how much they are helping and just where their money is going. It offers a profound connection between cause and effect for people who could otherwise, just buy coffee from the store.
Cozzee was founded by Garry Williams. With a dynamic background in global business strategy, marketing management and business development, and a strong desire to connect people with worthy causes, Williams developed this unique and powerful paradigm. His hope is that Cozzee will leverage an amazing coffee experience to create positive change in the world.
