Two missions trips to Uganda becomes a Christ-centered coffee business for social change! Turns out Uganda has great coffee.
Two missions trips to Uganda becomes a Christ-centered coffee business for social change! Turns out Uganda has great coffee.
We made two trips to Uganda (2019 and 2023) to visit ministries, make connections, and grow closer to Christ. Along the way, we knew that we had to find a way to do something for the people of Uganda. The challenge was to find a way to raise the funds. It was then that we learned about the excellent coffee grown by Ugandan farmers!
We toured Watoto and learned about their work with orphans and single mothers in the community. We couldn't help falling in love with all the babies in the nursery. Their family structure and schooling impressed really impressed us. It was also heart breaking to see how single mothers live in Uganda.
Our second trip allowed us to meet the people at a children's cancer ministry. Rather than allowing them to sleep on the streets during treatment, this ministry has homes where the children, and their families, can stay as they receive treatment.
We also met a husband and wife who work with special needs children. It was amazing how organized, well planned, and visionary they were.
Meanwhile, there remains under served segments of Ugandan life. The country is rather young on average with many people lacking the training or education to provide for a better life. Many opportunities exist where training, water, health care, or a helping hand could change lives.
This is where Pneuma Java comes into the picture. We searched and searched for ways that we could help. In our opinion, there had to be a way to help single mothers, farmers, and communities. Our vision is for ministry centers where we can train people in new skills, encourage farmers with new methods, provide wells for clean water in communities, or bring quality healthcare to rural locations.
We have identified excellent coffee beans that are locally grown in Uganda. They naturally have exotic flavors which craft an amazing coffee experience. Your purchase of our coffees allows us to return the profits to Uganda to provide services in rural areas.
Welcome to Pneuma Java, your gateway to the rich, vibrant flavors of Uganda’s finest coffee. Our journey began with a simple passion: to help single mothers in Ugandan communities by sharing the exquisite taste of Ugandan coffee with the world. Nestled in the heart of Africa, Uganda boasts a unique landscape and climate that produce coffee beans with an unparalleled depth of flavor and aroma. To enable our passion, we have partnered with coffee cooperatives and suppliers that equal our drive to share premium quality coffee beans. They support small scale holder farmers and actively promote women in coffee. Our coffees are sustainably sourced from over 35 farming groups where more than 26,000 tons of coffee are processed each year. The best part of our coffees is the full, smooth flavors with very little for an aftertaste. Each of our coffees have distinct flavor which we think you will find unique.
For us it is every sip from every bean, and every life within every community . . . all connected!
Thank you for looking into our Pneuma Java coffees, where every sip is a journey to the heart of Uganda.
